Answer:
v = 3×10^8 m/s
s= 384,400 km= 3.84×10^8 m/s
t = ?
v = s/t = 2s/t
t = 2s/v
t = (2×3.84×10^8) ÷ 3×10^8
t = 2.56 seconds
Explanation:
Earth's moon is the brightest object in our
night sky and the closest celestial body. Its
presence and proximity play a huge role in
making life possible here on Earth. The moon's gravitational pull stabilizes Earth's wobble on its axis, leading to a stable climate.
The moon's orbit around Earth is elliptical. At perigee — its closest approach — the moon comes as close as 225,623 miles (363,104 kilometers). At apogee — the farthest away it gets — the moon is 252,088 miles (405,696
km) from Earth. On average, the distance fromEarth to the moon is about 238,855 miles (384,400 km). According to NASA , "That means 30 Earth-sized planets could fit in between Earth and the moon."
