Answer: Gravitational force.

Explanation:  The force that bounds the Earth and the moon is the gravitational force, and this is why the moon rotates around the Earth.

Now, here the moon is orbiting the Earth is a similar case of how the Earth orbits the Sun and such.

The moon has a given velocity perpendicular to the line that connects it with the Earth, and the gravitational force accelerates the moon in a perpendicular direction with respect to the velocity of the moon, and this is why the moon rotates and does not come towards the Earth.

The answer is gravitational force. The gravitational force between the earth and the moon is the similar as between any other two masses in space.

Newton clarified that the force of attraction between two masses is the outcome of the weight of object one multiplied by the weight of objects two multiplied by the gravitational constant divided by the space between the two masses squared.

vovikov84 [41]

Explanation:

(a)

Critical angle is the angle at the angle of refraction is 90°. After the critical angle, no refraction takes place.

Using Snell's law as:

n_1\times {sin\theta_i}={n_2}\times{sin\theta_r}

Where,  

{\theta_i}  is the angle of incidence

{\theta_r} is the angle of refraction = 90°

{n_2} is the refractive index of the refraction medium

{n_1} is the refractive index of the incidence medium

Thus,

n_1\times {sin\ \theta_{critical}}={n_2}\times{sin\ 90^0}

The formula for the calculation of critical angle is:

{sin\theta_{critical}}=\frac {n_2}{n_1}

Where,  

{\theta_{critical}} is the critical angle

(b)

No it cannot occur. It only occur when the light ray bends away from the normal which means that when it travels from denser to rarer medium.
