Question

the earth attracts the moon does the moon also attract the Earth if it does why does the Earth not move towards the moon​

Answer 1

Answer:

Well, part of the gravitational force is in the same direction as the velocity, the moon will increase in speed. Also, since part of the force is a sideways force, the moon will change direction. This is what happens with most orbits. The moon moves closer to the Earth and speeds up as it does so.
