"The Earth has identical gravitational attraction to that of the Moon."
Explanation: By Newton’s law of gravitation and Newton’s third law, the gravitational force between Earth and Moon is equal in magnitude and opposite in direction. (Their accelerations differ because Earth is much more massive than the Moon.)
