ConcepTest 5.8a Earth and Moon I

. By Newton's 3rd Law, the forces are equal and opposite.. . ConcepTest 5.8a Earth and Moon I. 1) the Earth pulls harder on the Moon2) the Moon pulls harder on the Earth3) they pull on each other equally4) there is no force between the Earth and the Moon5) it depends upon where the Moon is in its orbit at that time.
