Final answer:
If the Sun collapsed into a black hole, the Earth's gravitational attraction would remain the same because the force of gravity depends on mass and distance. As long as these factors do not change, neither does the gravitational force.
Step-by-step explanation:
If the Sun collapsed into a black hole, counterintuitively, the gravitational attraction the Earth feels towards it would, in fact, stay the same. This is because the force of gravity between two objects depends on the mass of the objects and the distance between them (according to Newton's law of universal gravitation). As long as the mass of the Sun and the distance from the Earth to the Sun (or what would be the Sun turned black hole) remained the same, the gravitational force would remain the same. Earth would continue orbiting the black hole as it currently orbits the Sun.
