anyone know the distance from Earth (to the moon) where the gravitational pull of the moon is equal to the gravitational pull of the earth? (or any way I could calculate it?)

Equal gravitational pull is a physical phenomenon in which two or more objects exert the same amount of gravitational force on each other. This means that the force of gravity between the objects is balanced and there is no net acceleration.
Equal gravitational pull can be measured using the universal law of gravitation, which states that the force of gravity between two objects is directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.
Some examples of equal gravitational pull include the Earth and the Moon, the Sun and the Earth, and two objects of equal mass that are positioned at the same distance from each other.
The factors that affect equal gravitational pull include the masses of the objects and the distance between them. The greater the masses of the objects, the stronger the gravitational pull, while the greater the distance between them, the weaker the gravitational pull.
Equal gravitational pull is important because it helps to keep objects in orbit and maintain the balance of the universe. It also allows for the formation and stability of celestial bodies, such as planets and stars.
