Answer:

Explanation:

The eccentric formula for ellipse can be calculated using

e = (r_a - r_p) / (r_a + r_p)

r_a is the longest distance between the moon and its planet

r_p=0.27 r_a is the shortest distance between the moon and its planet

Then,

e = (r_a - r_p) / (r_a + r_p)

e = (r_a - 0.27 r_a) / (r_a + 0.27 r_a)

e = 0.73r_a / 1.27 r_a

e = 0.57

This is the moon orbital eccentric

Derek's experiment best demonstrates the effects of gravity, that force made the water go down and  hit the ground, the effect of that was a depression.

The definition of Hydrosphere is all the water of earth surface, so the water represents Hydrosphere.

The definition of Geosphere is the surface of Earth, when the water fell down and touched the ground it caused an interaction between Hydrosphere and Geosphere.
