which of the following statements about our moon is false? a.it has no real atmosphere to speak of b.its average density is less
than that of the earth (it seems to have fewer heavy materials) c.on earth, we can see all its sides in the course of a month as it goes around us d.most of what we know about its geology is the result of the apollo landings e.its mass is less than that of the earth
The correct option is c. On Earth, we can see all its sides in the course of a month as it goes around us. This is false about moon.
The sole natural satellite of Earth is the Moon. With a diameter that is around one-fourth that of the Earth, it is the fifth biggest satellite in the solar system and the largest and also most massive when compared to its parent planet. The Moon is larger than any known dwarf planets of the Solar System and is a planetary-mass object with a distinct rocky body, rendering it a satellite planet according to geophysical definitions of the term. There isn't much of an atmosphere, hydrosphere, or magnetic field there. With a surface gravity of 0.1654 g, it has a gravity that is around one-sixth that of Earth. Jupiter's moon Io is the only satellite in the Solar System that is known to have a higher gravity and density.
Magma cools and crystallizes to form igneous rock. Igneous rock undergoes weathering (or breakdown) to form sediment. The sediment is transported and deposited somewhere (such as at the beach or in a delta, or in the deep sea). The deposited sediment undergoes lithification (the processes that turn it into a rock).
