How tall is the Pyramid of the Moon?

Answer 1

As you may have learned, the moon doesn't have any air around it. The air that surrounds our earth acts as a nice blanket to keep us warm and comfy! But the moon, since it doesn't have this blanket, gets much colder than the earth and much hotter than the earth. On the side of the moon that the sun is shining on, the temperature reaches 260 Fahrenheit! That is hotter than boiling. On the dark side of the moon, it gets very cold, -280 Fahrenheit.

The moon has a tenuous atmosphere comprised by argon, polonium, radon, helium, oxygen, methane, nitrogen, carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide. There is a greenhouse effect on the moon due to the surface and subsurface lunar regolith, which has the property of absorbing and storing the incident solar radiation. This is the reason by which scientists are considering that the greenhouse effect on Earth depends more on the surface and subsurface regolith than on the Earth's atmosphere.

Answer 2

The answer is: 15,133,979,520 inches.

The way to compute the answer for yourself:

The average distance to the moon, in miles, is 238,857.

There are 5,280 feet in a mile.

There are 12 inches in a foot.

Therefore, the number of inches to the moon is

238,857 * 5,280 * 12 = 15,133,979,520 inches

Answer 3

during the day it can range between 107°C (225°F), and123°C (253°F).

During the night they fall to about -153°C (-243°F).

near the poles where there is the least sunlight it can get as low as -233°C (-387°F).

Answer 4

The mean temperatures on the surface of the moon are listed as . . .

Daytime: 107° C (225° F)

Night-time: -153° C (-243° F)

The reason for the big difference between daytime and night is that there is no air

on the moon to spread the heat around.

Answer 5

The mean surface temperature during the day is 107° C (226.6° F)

At night that temperature is negative and drops to -153° C (-243.4 F)

The maximum surface temperature is 123° C (253.4° F)

The minimum surface temperature is -233° C (-387.4 F)

Answer 6

Mean distance to the Moon is about 380,000 kilometers, or 380 million meters. Divide the number of meters by 0.0254 to convert to inches.

Answer 7

The distance to the Moon is about 384,000 km or 384 million meters. To convert that to inches, remember that 1 inch = 0.0254 meters, so you can divide by this last number.

Answer 8

It changes slightly. Over a period of time of several months,

it averages out to about 238,000 miles.

Answer 9

The average centre-to-centre distance from the Earth to the Moon is

384,403 kilometres (238,857 miles).

Answer 10

Temperatures on the moon are very hot in the daytime, about 100 degrees C. At night, the lunar surface gets very cold, as cold as negative 173 degrees C.
