Divide
(the distance covered in some period of time)
by
(the time taken to cover the distance).
The quotient is the average speed during that period of time.
The Earth's gravity keeps the Moon orbiting us. It keeps changing the direction of the Moon's velocity. This means gravity makes the Moon accelerate all the time, even though its speed remains constant.
The tropical rain forest is located mostly on Islands. Mainly found in Africa.
A related type of beta decay actually decreases the atomic number of the nucleus when a proton becomes a neutron. Due to charge conservation, this type of beta decay involves the release of a charged particle called a “positron” that looks and acts like an electron but has a positive charge.
