Answer:

Revolution of moon around the earth

Explanation:

The revolution of moon around the earth.

The gravitational force acting on the moon is balanced by the centripetal force acting on the moon.

Gravitational force of earth on moon is given by

$F = G \frac{M m}{r^{2}}$

where, M be the mass of earth, m be the mass of moon and r be the distance between moon and earth.

The centripetal force acting on moon is

$F = \frac{m v^{2}}{r}$

These two forces balance each other and then the moon revolves around the earth in fixed orbit.

Write down one fact about each of the following crust, mantle, outer, core, & inner core

Oksanka [162]

Answer:

Hope this help you!!

Explanation:

Crust : The crust is the thinnest layer of the Earth. It has an average thickness of about 18 miles below land, and around 6 miles below the oceans. The crust is the layer that makes up the Earth's surface and it lies on top of a harder layer, called the mantle.

Mantle : The mantle is the mostly-solid bulk of Earth's interior. The mantle lies between Earth's dense, super-heated core and its thin outer layer, the crust. The mantle is about 1,802 miles thick, and makes up a whopping 84% of Earth's total volume

Outer Core : The outer core is the third layer of the Earth. It is the only liquid layer, and is mainly made up of the metals iron and nickel, as well as small amounts of other substances. The outer core is responsible for Earth's magnetic field. As Earth spins on its axis, the iron inside the liquid outer core moves around.

Inner Core : It's Almost The Size of the Moon. The Earth's inner core is surprisingly large, measuring 1,516 miles across. It's Mostly Made of Iron. It Spins Faster Than the Surface of the Earth. It Creates a Magnetic Field.
