Causes Earth's centripetal Acceleration........ WHS AOEC
Yes, the moon revolves about (orbits) the earth because of gravitational forces. However it also rotates (turns/spins) about its axis of rotation - this movement involves gravitational forces as well. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Gravity is involved in both the revolution and the rotation of the moon. For more on the rotation (spin) of the moon, see the link below.
It is because the earth rotates(orbits) around the sun. :)
The Earth orbits around the Sun is the simple answer, which is good enough for most people. However, a more accurate answer is that they both orbit the center of mass of the solar system. Because the Sun has nearly 99.9 percent of the mass of the solar system, the Earth orbits a point that's normally just outside the Sun's surface. So, the simple answer is fairly accurate.

Because the suns gravitational pull stops them from zooming off.
They move around the nucleus in gravitational orbits
The force of gravity does. It's really the only force available.
Orbits help a planet move because of gravitational pull which makes the planet orbit round and round. The planets orbit around the son and the moon orbits around earth. Hope this helps!
The moon orbits because of the gravitational pull from a plant. Planets move around the sun because. The lighter object orbits the heavier one, and the Sun is, by far, the heaviest object in the solar system.
Its mass and its resultant gravitational pull are the prime influences the sun exerts on the planets. The sun controls the orbits of the planets by the very fact of its existence. If the sun did not exist, if it were not as massive as it is, if it weren't there to exert its strong gravitational pull, the planets would simply fly out into space and find the next, closest large mass with which to associate.
All closed orbits are the result of mutual gravitational forcesbetween the central body and the satellite.In other words: Gravity .The Moon orbits Earth rather than falling into it, of course. That's because theMoon has a velocity (roughly "sideways" to the gravitational force). The Moon'svelocity, combined with gravity, results in the orbital path of the Moon.
It orbits around Earth because of the mutual gravitational forces between the Earth and the Moon, which attract them to each other.
planets are in orbit because of the suns gravitational field chupa naman diyan Planets are kept in their orbits by gravitational forces.
ALL closed gravitational orbits are ellipses.
Planets and moons remain in their orbits because of the gravitational pull other bigger planets or stars have on them, for example the Earth stays in its orbit because of the gravitational force it is subjects to created by the Sun, and the moon stays in its orbit because of the gravitational force it is subject to created by the Earth. It's all about gravity and force.
the gravitational perturbation of Jupiter disrupting stable orbits there.
