Earth and the Moon are attracted to each other by gravitational force. The more-massive Earth attracts the less-massive Moon with a force
1) less than the force that Moon exerts on Earth. 2) greater than that of the force that Moon exerts on Earth. 3) the same as that of the force that Moon exerts on Earth. This is in accord with 4) the law of inertia. 5) Kepler's Laws. 6) the conservation of energy. 7) the fact that both Moon and Earth orbit about a common point, the center of mass. 8) the law of action and reaction.
