Why doesnt the moon get pulled into the sun

Answer:

The moon does not get pulled into the sun because of gravitational pull.

Explanation:

Gravitational pull is a force that pulls things down or into i guess you can say. Like are orbit, all of the planets (even the dwarf planet "pluto") are circling around are sun but we have things called moons that circle are planets. Are moon is orbiting us like we (are earth) are orbiting the sun. So to get into a little more detail, i will add that we circle the sun or the moon circles us because the action of earth pulling away from the suns gravitational pull is causing it to either rotate or revolve.So we are stuck in the gravitational force of the sun and the moon is stuck in ares. But as someone who LOVES astronamy will say that i watched a video about are earth, sun, and moon and it said that each year are moon is slowly pulling away from the earth. sooner or later we might not have a solar or lunar eclipse anymore.

Answer:

But the path of the Moon is always concave towards the Sun; the gravitational force exerted by the Sun on the Moon is always greater than the pull of the Earth on the Moon

Does heat rise or fall?? the last person that answered did it just for the points and gave me no real answer
nasty-shy [4]
Heat does not rise or fall because it is an energy being transferred. It is the hot air which rises because colder air is denser than hotter air.

A 80 g particle is moving to the left at 22 m/s . How much net work must be done on the particle to cause it to move to the righ
AysviL [449]

Answer:

W= 38.4 J

Explanation:

Given that

m = 80 g= 0.08 kg

Initial speed ,u= 22 m/s

Final speed ,v= 38 m/s

The change in the kinetic energy of the particle

\Delta KE=\dfrac{1}{2}m(v^2-u^2)

\Delta KE=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 0.08\times (38^2-22^2)\ J

ΔKE= 38.4 J

We know that

Work done by all the forces =Change in the kinetic energy

That is why net work done = 38.4 J.

W= 38.4 J

Therefore the answer will be 38.4 J.
