What do you think would happen to the moon if no force was exerted on it by earth?

Then we would not see the light of the Moon, either - the light we see from the Moon is light it reflects from the Sun.
Additionally the moon, together with our Earth would drift through the universe, not bound anymore be the sun's gravity field.

Why do we observe moon phases on earth?
to me i think we observe them to know which is going to happen or to notice when an eclipse is going to happen
Why at the center of the earth the gravitational force is zero?
if four horses with equal power are pulling one from opposite sides, it will not move. means net force would be zero. same is at center of earth. the mass of earth around center attracts equally to all sides( because geometrical center and center of mass are same). so net force is zero. On the other hand if you think of gravity as a force puling you into the centre of the earth then when you are at the center of the earth gravity must be zeero
What do you think will happen as a result of earth rotating though 360 or full circle?
A day passes-it does that every day.
Which planet has gravitational force that is equal to 37.7?
I think it is Mars, but the question is incomplete. Mars does have a surface gravity that's 37.7 percent of the Earth's.
What would happen if there was two people on earth?
i think the earth would die out because there are many things to take care of on are planet but you could takewhat ever you want if you were the only person on earth but that would be wrong any way
What is the amount of force exerted by a tree on a student?
I don't know but I think 5n

What do you think would happen if the earth stoped moving?
The gravitational pull of the sun would not be balanced by the outward force derived from the Earth's centripetal motion, and the earth would fall into the sun.
What do you think would happen if the moon has greater gravitational force than the earth?
A single body doesn't have a gravitational force. The force only shows up when there are two bodies. It pulls both of them toward each other, and they both feel the same force. The force between you and the earth is called your "weight", and it holds you down. The force between the earth and the moon is what keeps the moon in its orbit.
Force that tends to draw all bodies in the earth's sphere toward the center of the earth?
The earth's gravity force f(earth) = -mGM(earth)/r2.
What force is acting when you are sitting on a chair?
Your weight pushing down on the chair is the action force. The reaction force is the force exerted by the chair that pushes up on your body
What do you think will happen if a big comet were to hit earth?
it could be the end of the earth
What do you think why war happen?
Political means failed. Force is applied.
Why do you think an asteroid crashed into earth?
Because it was headed towards earth. It was bound to happen.
What while happen if there is no sun?
The first that would happen, if the sun suddenly vanished, is that the gravitational force that keeps Earth rotating around it, would vanish with it. That would make Earth and all other planets to go in a straight line, (think of the centrifugal-force). The light, and all electromagnetic radiation (that has been threw away from the sun) will, however, still hit the Earth for about 8 more minutes, due to the speed of light and the range sun-Earth.
What would happen if there was no pioneer species?
i think that there will be no humans on earth
Did Aristotle think that a force acts on the moon as revolves around the earth?
no!
