Question

1. the moon orbits earth because it is pulled toward the center of the earth due to gravity. select electrical (electrostatic) force tension 2. a balloon rubb all due to tension gravity applied force

Explanation:

The moon orbits the Earth due to the gravitational force exerted by the Earth on the moon. Gravity is a fundamental force that attracts two masses towards each other. In this case, the Earth's mass pulls the moon towards its center, causing the moon to follow an orbital path. Electrical (electrostatic) force acts between charged particles, tension is a force in a stretched - object like a string, and applied force is an external force applied by an agent. But for the moon - Earth system, it is gravity that is responsible for the moon's orbit.

Answer:

1. gravity
