Question

If the moon attracts the earth ,why does the earth not move towards the moon?? And how do mass affect their acceleration; If the moon attracts the earth ,why does the earth not move towards the moon?? And how do mass affect their acceleration

Answer 1

because earth has large mass than the moon and low gravitational force than earth

Answer 2

Answer: moon also attracts the earth whenever a force act on a body it produce acceleration

Acceleration a = F / m

Acceleration produce in a body is universally proportional to its mass

the Mohan has a small mass and the earth has very big mass therefore the gravitational force acting between the moon and the earth produce a large as a fresher in the moon due to its small mass

the same gravitational force however produce a very small acceleration in Earth due to its very large mass

however it's due to large mass aspiration in the moon that we can see the moon moving toward the earth but the acceleration produced in the earth is small so that displacement of earth is almost zero that is why we do not see the earth morning toward the earth.
