Answer:  C) We always see the same side of the Moon from Earth

Explanation:    

                       The moon is a natural satellite of earth which orbits around the earth with an orbital period (time to complete one revolution ) of around 27 days . Along with this the moon also rotates about its own axis with period of rotation 27 days which is approximately same as the period of revolution . Due to this coincidence that the amount of time the Moon takes to complete one rotation and one revolution are nearly identical , we always see the same side of the Moon from Earth .

           If the Moon did not rotate on itself or did so at a different rate, it would gradually show its entire surface: the visible side and the hidden side. The coincidence between both periods (the rotation and orbital periods) is known as synchronous rotation.

Suppose the earth is shaped as a sphere with radius 4,0004,000 miles and suppose it rotates once every 24 hours. How many miles
Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

1047 miles

Explanation:

The radius of the Earth is

r = 4000 (miles)

So its circumference, which is the total length of the equator, is given by

L=2\pi r= 2\pi(4000)=25133 mi

Now we know that the Earth rotates once every 24 hours. So the distance through which the equator moves in one hour is equal to its total length divided by the number of hours, 24:

L' = \frac{25133 mi}{24h}=1047 mi

Six artificial satellites complete one circular orbit around a space station in the same amount of time. Each satellite has mass
REY [17]

The satellites launch rockets to generate the force required to keep an orbit all around space station circular. The continuous centripetal force is maintained by the centripetal force.

<h3>What is a good illustration of gravity?</h3>

The energy holding the gases inside the sun. the power behind a ball's descent after being thrown into the air. the force that makes an automobile coast downward even when the gas is not depressed.

<h3>What makes anything gravitational?</h3>

Our term gravity and more specific derivation gravitation are derived from a Latin word gravity, from gravis, which itself is derived from a much older root word that is considered to have existed due to multiple cognates in closely related languages.

To obtain the same resistance force, a greater force must be exerted in a machine of lower efficiency than in a machine
Sindrei [870]

Answer: True.

Explanation:

A resistance force is also known as friction. And the efficiency of a machine is affected by friction.

A machine of lower efficiency has higher magnitude of friction than a machine of higher efficiency.

Therefore, To obtain the same resistance force, a greater force must be exerted in a machine of lower efficiency than in a machine of higher efficiency. This is true
