Answer:

27 days

Explanation:

Earth has only one natural satellite-the moon. The moon is about one-fourth the Earth's size. Moon rotates about its own axis as well as revolves about the Earth. Its revolution period around Earth is 27.32 days (27 \frac{1}{3} days) where as its rotation period is 27 days. Due to this synchronization of the two periods, only one side of the moon is always visible to us.

It lasts 29 1/2 days.
-the sidereal month- is the true period of the moon's revolution around Earth. It lasts 27 1/3 days.
-the difference of 2 days between the synodic and sidereal cycles is due to the Earth- moon system also moving in an orbit around the sun.

A proton, which is the nucleus of a hydrogen atom, can be modeled as a sphere with a diameter of 2.4 fm and a mass of 1.67 10-27
Step2247 [10]
For the answer to the question above asking to d<span>etermine the density of the proton. 
</span>Density is mass over volume. 

The volume of a sphere is 4πr³/3. r is half the diameter. 

So the density would be 2.3×10¹⁷ kg/m³. 
I hope my answer helped you. Feel free to ask more questions. Have a nice day!

What are the similarities between strong nuclear force and weak nuclear force
Artemon [7]
Alike because they both act on the quarks making up the nucleons and they have very short ranges. The Strong Nuclear Force is an attractive force between protons and neutrons that keep the nucleus together and the Weak Nuclear Force is responsible for the radioactive decay of certain nuclei. Which also makes them very different
