. The Moon has a radius of 1.74×106m. It is orbiting the Earth at a distance of 3.84×108m, taking 27.3 days for a complete revol

ution. The free-fall acceleration on Moon is 1.62 m/s2 . From the information given, find the mass of the Moon and the mass of Earth.

Answer: mass of moon = 7.350 * 10²² Kg

Mass of earth = 5.98 * 10²⁴Kg

Explanation:

acceleration due to gravity = (gravitational constant * mass of the body) / (distance from the centre of mass)²

g = Gm/r²

G = 6.673 * 10^-11

g(moon) = 1.62 m/s²

r (moon) = 1.74 *10⁶

g = GM/r²

M = gr² / G

M = 1.62 * (1.74 * 10⁶)² / 6.673 * 10^-11

M = 7.350 * 10²² Kg

Mass of moon = 7.350 * 10²² Kg

Mass of earth =?

g = GM / r²

M = gr² / G

g = 9.8 m/s²

G = 6.673 * 10 ^-11

r = 3.84 * 10⁸m

M = 9.8 * (3.84 * 10⁸)² / 6.673 * 10^-11

M = 5.98 * 10²⁴ Kg

Mass of the earth = 5.98 * 10²⁴kg

The albedo of Earth's surface is impacted by what covers the surface. Suppose Location A is covered by trees, Location B is cove
Drupady [299]

Answer:

A. is covered by trees

Explanation:

  • The albedo is a measure of the reflectivity of the surface and thus is applied to the earth as a measure of the earth's energy potential when reflecting into space that has cooling impacts on the earth landscape.
  • <u>Thus the albedo of the land's surface is the function of the impact so the climate and the weather patterns on earth are like the earth's terrain is uneven so is the impact of the reflected from the surface as he white and the open places have a high albedo capacity as compared to the areas which are overt and are dense and dark.  </u>
  • Due to the trees are scattered and tends to absorb the light that is emitted and they also have a great heat-absorbing capacity. The albedo of the coniferous trees is about 0.09 to 0.15, whereas that of the deciduous trees about of 0.15 to 0.18, hence is the lowest.

Environmental factors that cause ill health​
Over [174]

Answer:

Chemical pollution, air pollution, climate change, disease-causing microorganisms, abject health care, abysmal infrastructure, and inadequate water quality.

Explanation:

Different chemicals can impact human health in different ways, and often, exposure to dangerous or foreign substances creates health vulnerabilities. Air pollution describes any solid or liquid particles and gases suspended in the air and have harmful or poisonous effects. Climate change disrupts the natural world in several ways that can impede health and increase vulnerability to disease; these include increases in the planet’s temperature and more frequent heavy rains and runoff. Harmful microbes, which are more commonly called pathogens or germs, can infect humans and cause illness. Individuals who don’t have access to health care services like pharmaceuticals and dental care are at a higher risk for chronic conditions, including asthma, cancer, diabetes, or heart disease. Lack of local health care infrastructure, poorly maintained roads, and lack of access to clean drinking water impacts community health. Industrial waste and pollution, lack of access to proper water treatment and sanitation services, and outdated plumbing infrastructure contribute to poor water quality.

Rzqust [24]

Answer:

planet's orbital eccentricity and semi-major axis

Explanation:

The eccentricity and the semi - major axis controls the size and  shape of the orbit of the planet  . The value for the semi major axis is equal to the half of largest diameter of the elliptical orbit .

The eccentricity controls the shape of elliptical orbit . It is the ratio of the center to the focus ( sun ) length and the semi - major axis length .
