    When two objects are farther apart, the gravitational attraction

    between them is weaker.

    This is a big part of the reason why we are more strongly attracted

    to the Earth than we are to Jupiter or to the Sun.

    The gravitational pull on moon A will be lower since it is further away from the new planet.
