Verrrrry interesting !
If the moon were replaced by something with a vastly greater mass
but at the same distance, then ...

-- The period of its revolution around the Earth would be much shorter.
That is, it would orbit the Earth in much less than 27.3 days.  We might
see it go through a complete set of phases in 2 weeks, or even 1 week.

-- The ocean tides would be much greater.  Low tides would be
much lower, and high tides would be much higher.

-- Sadly, the land tides, and the forces on the Earth's internal structure,
would also be much greater.  That means great increases in earthquake
and volcanic activity.

-- The Earth and moon both revolve around their common center of
mass. Under the current arrangement ... with the Earth having 80 times
the mass of the Moon ... that point is inside the Earth, and it looks a lot
like the Moon is orbiting a stationary Earth.
When the new body arrives to replace the lightweight Moon, that point
will be a lot closer to the new companion ... maybe even inside it. 
Then, it will look a lot like the monster is the stationary one, and the
Earth is orbiting it.
I actually don't believe that we would SEE that change, or feel it.

Compare and contrast the inner and outer planets. (Must be in complete sentences) (At least 5 sentences).
Karolina [17]

To contrast inner and outer planets we will start with the climate of the planets and then move on to there lighting. To start the planets closet to the sun, mercury, venus, earth and mars, are all hot compared to the further one, jupiter, saturn, uranus, neptune. This distance also makes the farthe away planets darker than the ones closer. Now to compare all the planets vary from either gass or solid, rocky or icy. All of them spin around the sun and all have objects spinning around them, moons.

12) A neutral atom has two, eight, eight electrons in its first, second, and third energy levels.This information ________.
pentagon [3]

Answer:

C.

Explanation:

Option C

The information given in the question tells us about the number of electrons in an atom and also the number of shells in the atom. So, we will come to know about the atomic number, size and chemical properties of the atom. But we cannot determine atomic mass. Atomic mass is a function of number of neutrons and protons.
