There is a force of gravity in both directions between every pair of objects,
attracting them toward each other. There's no limit on the distance.
There is a force of gravity in both directions between the lint in your pocket
and the smallest grain of sand on the beach on the far side of the farthest
planet orbiting the farthest star in the farthest galaxy from Earth, attracting
them toward each other.

Why is it that the earth is not affected by the Moon's gravity?
Earth is affected by the moon's gravity. The moon's gravity exerts just as much force on Earth as Earth's gravity does on the moon, but since Earth is far more massive, it undergoes far less acceleration.
Where is there no gravity other than the moon?
There is gravity on the moon but not as much as on Earth. This is because the amount of gravity depends on the mass of the object creating the gravity and the moon is much smaller and has much lower mass than the Earth. If you are far enough away from the Earth (and moon) their will be a point where there is no noticeable gravity.
Can you run quicker on the moon than on earth?

What changes when an object from earth goes to the moon?
-- the object's weight -- the atmospheric pressure on it -- the temperature around it -- the intensity of solar radiation on it -- its distance from the nearest McDonald's the force of gravity on the surface of the moon is about 1/6th the gravity on the surface of the earth so an object on the moon would weigh about 1/6th what it weighs on earth. The moon´s gravitational field is not strong enough to hold an atmosphere. As the atmosphere in part acts as a heatsink the temperature difference between day and night on the moon is far larger than on the earth.
What did the Apollo 11 crew do up on the moon?
The crew of Apollo 11 waited for a while and saw there was no damage to the spacecraft, they walked on the moon surface, left experiments on the moon. , ate their meals, ook pictures of themselves. And Edwin Buzz Aldrin played Golf on the moon , the ball went far due to less gravity.
How does the moon gravity compare with earth?
An object on the moon's surface weighs 16.55% as much as the same object weighs when it's on the Earth's surface. That's about 1/6 as much.

Why is gravity on the moon not as strong as on earth?
The moon has far less mass than Earth, so the force of gravity will be much lower.

Why water do not go towards the moon if moon attracts it?
The earth's gravity is far stronger than that of the moon, so it overpowers it.
Why is their less gravity on your moon than earth?
because the moon it so far away that gravity can not reach it so u wont be able to stay on the ground of the moon for very long
Do I weigh more on the moon than I do on earth?
Considerably less because the Moon has far less mass then the Earth hence far weaker gravity.
Why is there a high tide on the far side of the Earth?
Tides occur because the strength of an object's gravity depends on the distance from that object. Gravity is stronger at smaller distances. The moons gravity pulls Earth toward it, causing Earth to wobble around a point about a thousand miles below the surface as the moon orbits. Since the water on the far side of Earth experience slightly less lunar gravity than the rest of the planet it lags behind a bit, creating a high tide.
If you hit a golf ball as hard as you can on the surface of the moon how far will it travel?
very far
