Which action results from the combination of gravity and inertia working on the moon?

Question

the moon’s orbit around Earth
Earth’s downward pull on the moon
the moon’s push against other planets
Earth’s gravitational pull toward the moon

Answer 1

The action that results from the combination of gravity and inertia working on the moon is the moon’s orbit around Earth.

Gravity pulls the moon towards the Earth, while inertia keeps it moving forward in its path. The balance of these two forces creates a stable orbit.
