Why does the moon evolve around the earth rather than the sun?

  • Correct Answer: stronger gravitational force
  • stronger magnetic force
  • stronger planetary force
  • weaker gravitational force

Explanation: Objects that are closer together have a stronger force of gravity. For example, the moon is closer to Earth than it is to the more massive sun, so the force of gravity is greater between the moon and Earth than between the moon and the sun. That’s why the moon circles around Earth rather than the sun. This is illustrated in Figure below .
