Question

An apple is attracted towards the earth. Does the apple attract the earth? If so, we do not see the earth moving toward the apple why?

Answer 1

because gravitational force present in earth

Answer 2

Yes. It does attract. But the mass of earth is comparatively huge to that of apple. So the apple shows relative motion and not the earth. If you want an example, try it out with magnet and iron fillings.

P.S. I know gravitational force and magnetic force are different but in some case both act in a similar way
