The Earth Answer: As far as the "Why?" This is because the formula to calculate the magnitude of gravitaiona; attraction between two objects depends on the mass of the onjects. The formula is: Fg = G (m1m2/D2) Where: Fg = The force of gravity between objects

M = Mass

G = The universal gravitational constant

D = The distance between the two objects Substituting values for the masses of the object, the moon and the Earth and canceling out the constant values gives us: F (Earth and Object)/ F (Moon and Object) = Mass Earth/Mass Moon As the mass of the Earth is significantly larger than the mass of the moon Mass Earth/Mass Moon =80) the attraction of the Earth is stronger and the object is pulled towards the Earth.
