Why doesnt the moon get pulled into the sun

Physics

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

What is the gravitational potential energy of a 0.550-kg projectile flying with 335 m/s, 72 meters above the ground?
Fofino [41]

Answer:

GPE = 388.08 Joules.

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Mass = 0.550kg

Speed = 335 m/s

Height = 72 meters

We know that acceleration due to gravity, g is equal to 9.8 m/s²

To find the gravitational potential energy;

Gravitational potential energy (GPE) is an energy possessed by an object or body due to its position above the earth.

Mathematically, gravitational potential energy is given by the formula;

G.P.E = mgh

Where;

G.P.E represents potential energy measured in Joules.

m represents the mass of an object.

g represents acceleration due to gravity measured in meters per seconds square.

h represents the height measured in meters.

Substituting into the formula, we have;

G.P.E = 0.550 * 9.8 * 72

GPE = 388.08 Joules.

Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

5 years

Explanation:

The insurances mandate states that every driver or owner of a car has to have an insurance at least covering third parties damages and hospital care, this is to prevent people from going broke because of a car accident, if you faile to have one they would make you have proof of financial responsability for a year, if ater that failing, you are caught again without insurance withint 5 years the proof of financial responsability increases to 5 years.

How do matter and energy differ in the way in which they move through an ecosystem
Katyanochek1 [597]

Some ecosystems are closed, isolated, or open. In isolated systems, neither energy nor matter can leave/enter the ecosystem. In closed ecosystems, only energy can move in or out of the ecosystem In open ecosystems, energy and matter both can freely enter or exit the ecosystem. If this doesn't answer your question, please let me or another Brainly user know. Thanks for using Brainly!
