The earth and the moon are attracted to each other by gravitational force. Does the earth attract the moon with a force that is greater or smaller or the same as with which the moon attracts the earth? Why?

the the earth attracts the moon with greater gravitational force but boom didn't come to the earth because the applied gravitational force of the Earth on the moon is in the perpendicular direction as and as we know that perpendicular force does not act or it is zero so the moon didn't come on earth


prakshali63: why
devil3694: both forces are same
prakshali63: ok thank you for correcting me
prakshali63: but my answer is also correct
prakshali63: because perpendicular force cancel out each other and it becomes zero
devil3694: because Earth has great mass then moon, moon go round thr earth.
prakshali63: but they are acting perpendicular and around that earth has greater force but it is not attracting moon because it is perpendicular please read carefully
devil3694: u are right that perpendicular force cancel out each other but your statement is not correct
prakshali63: ok
prakshali63: please mark as brainlist

Both forces are equal.

actually erth is bigger than moon

and having more mass than moon

so Earth stays and moon revolving around Earth......

In sort when two objects attract or repeal each other then, both make same Force of attraction or repulsion...

Thanks......
