What would be the path of the moon if somehow all gravitational forces on it vanished to zero?

1 answer:

6 0

The Moon would take off in a straight line, at a constant speed, with the
same speed and direction it had at the instant that gravity got switched off.

(Of course, if ALL gravity got switched off, then the Moon would fall apart.
The radioactive and volcanic heat activity in its core would continue, and
suddenly there wouldn't be anything to hold it together. Same for the Earth.)

How is the temperature of a gas related to the kinetic energy of its particles?

devlian [24]

Answer:

As the temperature increases, the kinetic energy of the particles increases.

Explanation:

When the temperature of the substance increases, the velocity increases which makes the movement of the particles to speed up. This causes the particles to increase. Therefore, as the temperature increases, the kinetic energy of the particles also increases.
