The one important way in which both the moon and mercury are different from earth is through option C. they do not have an atmosphere. Furthermore, Earth contains liquid water in its surface layer, but the Moon does not. Mercury has more metals than the Moon, with a strong iron-nickel core.

<h3>What are the major differences in earth, moon and Mercury?</h3>

Although, the two bodies have significant differences: unlike the moon, Mercury has a global magnetic field; its density is higher; there is an abundance of volatile elements such as sulfur; its surface contains much less iron, particularly in its crustal silicates

Therefore, the correct answer is as given above

The altitude of Polaris measured by an observer at the Tropic of Cancer is 1) 15° 2) 23.5° 3) 66.5° 4) 90°
9966 [12]

Answer: 23.5\°

Explanation:

The Tropic of Cancer is one of the parallels (imaginary line around the Earth parallel to the equator) located in the northern hemisphere (currently its latitude is 23.43672\° \approx 23.5\°).

It is called "Cancer" because a long time ago, when the summer solstice occurred in the northern hemisphere (on June 20th or 21st), the Sun was in the constellation Cancer (the crab).

Now, if we were just in the North Pole, Polaris would by exactly over our heads (90\° over the horizon), but as we go south and find the Tropic of Cancer parallel, Polaris altitude will be approximately at an angle of 23.5\° over the horizon.

Hence, the altitude of Polaris measured by an observer at the Tropic of Cancer is 23.5\°.
