Answer: Earth is larger than the moon, so Earth pulls on the moon.

Explanation:

The Moon receives the Sun's light from different angles as it orbits the Earth. ... This is because it takes the same amount of time to spin on its axis once as it does to orbit the Earth once. The gravity between the Earth and the Moon caused this special case of tidal locking (called synchronous rotation).

If the temperature of an iron sphere is increased A)its density will decrease .B)its volume will decrease. C)its mass will decre
babymother [125]

Answer:

A) Its density will decrease

Explanation:

When an object is heated, its volume increases. This is due to the fact that the particles in the medium vibrate more (if it is a solid) or they move more (if it is a liquid or a gas), therefore they tend to occupy a larger space.

At the same time, the mass of the object does not change, because the mass just represents the amount of matter contained in the object, so it does not increase/decrease at different temperatures.

The density of an object is defined as the ratio between the mass (m) and the volume (V):

d=\frac{m}{V}

We said that the mass remains unchanged while the volume increases: since the density is inversely proportional to the volume, this means that the density decreases.
