No. Rather the moon would shoot out into space in a straight line.
Were it not for the interaction of the Moon's gravity with the Earth's, it would not be there. Gravity keeps it in its orbit, as it does all celestial bodies. The moon's gravity also affects the Earth, causing the tides and geological stresses.
The moon is held in orbit around the Earth by gravity. The gravitational pull between the Earth and the moon keeps the moon moving in a consistent path around the Earth.
You would weigh less on the moon compared to Earth due to the weaker gravity. The gravitational pull is about 0.17 times on the moon compared to Earth, so your weight would be significantly lower on the moon than on Earth.
No, the Earth's gravity pulls the moon in towards Earth.
Everything that has mass has gravity, even you. The Moon has its own gravitational pull as does the Earth.
If the Earth's gravity were to stop pulling on the moon, the moon would continue to move. It would, however, fling off away from the Earth rather than continuing in its orbit.

No, inertia is trying to keep the moon moving in a straight line, which would be away from Earth. Gravity is pulling the moon towards Earth. The result when these two forces are combined is the moon maintaining a constant orbit of Earth.
It combines at all times. Poorly worded, meaningless question. During a solar eclipse (Sun, Moon,Earth all in line) the gravitational pull in the direction of the Moon would be the greatest. During a lunar eclipse (Moon, Earth, Sun in a line) the Moon's pull would be in the opposite direction of the Sun's gravity.
The Earth's gravity pulls the Moon towards it and its center.
Which type of pull? This is still gravity, but now it's the Moon's gravity or "Lunar gravity".
No, the Earth's gravity pulls the moon in towards Earth.
The reason is that the Moon is always moving forward.The forward movement of the Moon is balanced with the inward pull of Earth's gravity.Because of this balance, the Moon stays in stable orbit around the Earth.
it applies to the earth and moon because their two objects in the universe that attract each other.
