Since the Moon is gravitational attracted to the Earth, why does it not simply crash into the Earth?

This is a very controversial topic to say the least. But scientifically, it is the mix of velocity and distance that keeps the Moon between fall and escape. If it wasn't for the gravitational pull was not there the moon would basically float off into space. With the moon constantly rotating it keeps it in orbit around Earth, but if it stopped rotating it would fall into Earth. The gravity pulls the Moon around Earth at a distance, but it does not pull (or push) it any closer to Earth.

the small 0.38-kg slider is known to move from position a to position b along the vertical-plane slot. determine (a) the work done on the body by its weight and (b) the work done on the body by the spring. the distance r = 0.70 m, the spring modulus k = 154 n/m, and the unstretched length of the spring is 0.53 m

answer: the metamorphic rocks are formed when they are exposed to high pressure and high temperatures. this happens when one of the earth's plates comes in contact with the other plate by traveling in opposite directions, straight into each other or slipping under one another. the friction that is caused by this activity results in   melting of rocks and when it cools they are known as metamorphic rocks. this process needs a controlled amount of pressure and temperature otherwise it may turn into magma.
