the angular momentum of the earth, moon system is conserved. due to friction caused by the tides, earth is slowing down, so the angular momentum of the moon has to inrease. But how? The gravitational field of the earth shows (nearly) a radial symmetry, so where are the forces that accelerate the moon?
