Over millions of years the moon is moving further away from the earth what will happen to the gravitational attraction between the moon and the earth as the moon gets further away?

As the moon gets further and further away, the gravitational force between the Earth and the Moon decreases. Because the Moon is not being attracted but being pushed away from the Earth. If the gravitational force would have increased, the moon would come closer and closer to the Earth.


What is the force that tends to make moving bodies fly away from the center of rotation?

The force that tends to make moving bodies fly away from the center of rotation is called centrifugal force. It is a pseudo-force experienced by objects in a rotating reference frame that appears to push objects outward from the center of rotation.
