I don't have an answer for you, but I do have an important hint ... one that will
stand you in good stead as you go further in your mathematical studies:
The reason there's a drawing right next to this question in the book or on the
homework sheet is that the question can't be answered without the drawing.
Answer:
The moons gravitational force at different points on the earth
Explanation:
The perstubation force of the sun on the moon at two places in its orbit . The blue arrows represent the direction and magnitude of the gravitational force on the Earth. Applying this to both the Earth's and the Moon's position does not disturb the positions relative to each other. When it is subtracted from the force on the Moon (black arrows), what is left is the perturbing force (red arrows) on the Moon relative to the Earth. Because the perturbing force is different in direction and magnitude on opposite sides of the orbit, it produces a change in the shape of the orbit.
In astronomy , perturbation is the complex motion of a massive body subject to forces other than the
gravitational attraction of a single other
massive body .
Answer:
A combination.
Explanation:
The government mandated that most crops grown under Soviet rule would be given to the gov. to redistribute to people in need; however this caused great hunger and people started to farm on the side for substinence. Now hardcore socialists believe commercial farming is not applicable to government-takeover of crops, but I call it commercial since there was "compensation" to the farmers (not really lol).
