Gasoline comes from petroleum, which is a fossil fuel. Petroleum, coal and natural gas (methane) are all made in the earth's crust from the bodies of plants and animals that died long ago. That's why they are called fossil fuels.

The sun provides the energy that all life needs to grow and reproduce. Therefore, fossil fuels can be considered a form of solar energy that has been stored in the bodies of living things, and then concentrated in hydrocarbon deposits in the earth's crust.

The fact is that all the energy on earth comes from the sun, directly or indirectly, except for nuclear energy, which comes from radioactive elements that were made in other stars that existed before the sun.

Hope this helps!!!

Jet001 [13]

Answer:

The center of mass of the Earth-Moon system is 4.673 kilometers away from center of Earth.

Explanation:

Let suppose that planet and satellite can be treated as particles. The masses of Earth and Moon ( $m_{E}$ , $m_{M}$ ) are $5.972\times 10^{24}\,kg$ and $7.349\times 10^{22}\,kg$ , respectively. The distance between centers is 384,403 kilometers. The location of the center of mass can be found by using weighted averages:

$\bar x = \frac{x_{E}\cdot m_{E}+x_{M}\cdot m_{M}}{m_{E}+m_{M}}$

If $x_{E} = 0\,km$ and $x_{M} = 384,403\,km$ , then:

$\bar x = \frac{(0\,km)\cdot (5.972\times 10^{24}\,kg)+(384,403\,km)\cdot (7.349\times 10^{22}\,kg)}{5.972\times 10^{24}\,kg+7.349\times 10^{22}\,kg}$

$\bar x = 4.673\,km$

The center of mass of the Earth-Moon system is 4.673 kilometers away from center of Earth.
