The Earth travels 365.25 times farther than the moon in one revolution. The moon's revolution around the Earth takes only one day; the Earth's revolution around the Sun takes 365.25 days.
Saturn is approximately 10 times farther from the Sun than Earth.
Neptune is about 30 times farther away from the sun than Earth is.
Neptune is about 30 times farther away from the sun than Earth is.
If a car travels twice as fast, it will skid four times farther because kinetic energy increases with the square of speed. If the car travels three times as fast, it will skid nine times farther compared to its initial speed.
Neptune takes about 165 Earth years to complete one orbit around the Sun. This long orbital period is due to its distance from the Sun, which is about 30 times farther than Earth's distance.
The force of gravity decreases with the square of the distance from the center of the Earth. If you were five times farther from the center, your weight would be 1/25th of what it is now, and if you were ten times farther, your weight would be 1/100th of your current weight. Therefore, you'd weigh significantly less the farther you are from the Earth's center, illustrating the inverse square law of gravitation.

It doesn't look like the Moon will hit Earth any time soon. In fact, it is gradually getting farther and farther away from Earth.
No. The moon is the closest astronomical object to Earth. The closest star to Earth is the sun, which is about 400 times farther away than the moon. The next nearest star is more than 260,000 times farther away than the sun.
Bullets cannot be shot farther west or east due to the Earth's rotation, as their trajectory is primarily determined by the force and direction of the shot. The rotation of the Earth only impacts large distances and long travel times, not the trajectory of a bullet over short distances.
