Yes, force of gravity. That is why it orbits the earth rather than flying off in a straight line.
Yes, the Earth and Moon both exert a gravitational force on each other. This force is responsible for the Moon orbiting around the Earth.
False. The sun does exert a gravitational force on the moon.
They exert Gravitational Force on each other. It is a force which is directly proportional to Mass of the object
Gravity on the moon is one-sixth of that on Earth, so you will exert less force on the moon.

no they don't
Earth exerts a non-contact force on the moon.
False. The Moon orbits around Earth due to Earth's gravitational pull, but the Sun also exerts a gravitational force on the Moon. The combined gravitational forces of Earth and the Sun control the Moon's orbit.
Gravity on the moon is one-sixth of that on Earth, so you will exert less force on the moon.
false
The moon is smaller than the Earth.Therefore it has a lower gravitational force. Don't you know this?
When you jump, you exert a force greater than the force of gravity to achieve a net positive upward acceleration - at least until your feet leave the ground and you quit exerting force. The net upward force is Fnet = (force you push off with) - (force of gravity) Because the moon has less mass than the earth, the force of gravity is less. As a result, the force you exert to jump on earth would give a higher net upward acceleration on the moon and allow you jump higher.
Yes, the Sun exerts a gravitational force on the Moon. This gravitational force contributes to the Moon's orbit around the Earth and influences its motion, causing various phenomena such as tides on Earth.
The force that keeps the moon in orbit around the sun is the gravitational force between the sun and the moon. This force causes the moon to continuously fall towards the sun but its orbital motion prevents it from colliding with the sun.
