What keeps the moon in its orbit around the moon?
The balance between the inertia of the Moon and the gravitational pull keeps the moon in orbit with Earth.
How is orbit and gravity related?
When it an object in space in moving it will keep moving at the same speed with the property of inertia. Then moon is an object that has inertia. Gravity keeps the moon from going off into outer space but inertia keeps the moon from crashing into the moon. Gravity and inertia have to be balanced in order for an object to remain in orbit.
Which of the following forces exerted by the earth on the moon keeps the moon in orbit?
The force that keeps the moon in orbit around the Earth is gravity. Specifically, the gravitational pull between the Earth and the moon is what keeps the moon in its elliptical orbit.
What force keeps the moons from floating away from the planets?
The force of gravity between the moon and the planet is what keeps the moon in orbit around the planet. This gravitational force prevents the moon from floating away into space and keeps it in a stable orbit.
What keeps the moon moving?
The moon keeps moving in its orbit around the Earth due to its inertia and the gravitational pull of the Earth. There is a balance between the moon's velocity and the gravitational force that keeps it in a stable orbit.
What keeps the moon its orbit?
The attraction of gravity between the Earth and the Moon.
Why can the moon not escape from the earth?
The earth is six times more massive than the moon. That keeps the moon in orbit around it, just as the mass of the sun keeps the earth in orbit around it.
What is the influence that keeps the Earth and the Moon in their respective orbits?
The influence that keeps the Earth and the Moon in their respective orbits is gravity. Gravity is the force of attraction between two objects with mass, such as the Earth and the Moon, that keeps them moving in their paths around each other.
What keeps the moon close to earth?
The same thing that keeps you from floating out into space. Gravity.
How does gravity impact the moon?
it keeps it in orbet
What keeps the moon near earth?
gravity
What keeps the moon ins orbit around earth?
That's the mutual force of gravitation (gravity) between the Earth and the Moon. This, combined with the Moon's velocity (its inertia), results in the orbital path that the Moon follows.
