Answer:

b) closest to

a)  farthest from

Explanation:

Gravitational force is strongest for the objects that are closer or nearby.

It is smallest for objects that are far away. This is according to the universal gravitational law.

Speed is \sqrt{G M / R}

So it can be seen that tangential speed is inversely proportional to the radius of the orbit. That's why when it is closer to the Sun, speed is more and when it is farthest from the Sun, speed is smallest.

explain what would be the same and what would be different about the phases and view of Earth to an inhabitant of the near side
guapka [62]

Answer:

Both the Earth and the moon are always half illuminated by the sun. But from either world, at any given time, you can see varying portions of that lighted half – or various phases of the Earth or moon. ... Instead, from a given point on the moon's near side, you'd always see Earth hanging in your sky.

How does geosphere interact with biosphere
Marina86 [1]

<span>With a partner, describe interactions in this scene, tracing the movement of materials or energy through all four of Earth's spheres if possible. Plants (biosphere) draw water (hydrosphere) and nutrients from the soil (geosphere) and release water vapor into the atmosphere.</span>

When do mountain formations occur?
Bezzdna [24]
Mountains can form many ways. a few are when divergent plates move abort and lava comes through the crack evenly forming up to what Hawaii is today. Another is when convergent plates collide moving upward forming mountains.

La cantidad de materia en un objeto.
Scrat [10]

La respuesta correcta es Masa

Explicación:

Todos los objetos existentes en el universo se componen de materia cuya unidad básica es conocida como átomo. A su vez el átomo se compone de subpartículas que incluyen protones, neutrones y electrones. Además de esto, la cantidad de materia o átomos en un objeto o cuerpo, por ejemplo la cantidad de materia en un balón se conoce como masa. Este factor se mide en unidades como gramos o kilos, por ejemplo, la cantidad de masa en una manzana es de aproximadamente de 150 gr. Finalmente, la masa se diferencia del peso porque en el peso la fuerza gravitacional y no solamente la materia se debe considerar.
