How is tangental velocity related to the moon falling around the earth?
The Moons tangential velocity is constantly changing in direction as it falls around the Earth.
What is the only lunar phase during which a solar eclipse can occur?
Solar eclipses happen during NEW moons, when the Moon blocks the light of the Sun. Lunar eclipses happen during FULL moons, when the Earth blocks the light of the Sun.
Does the planet with the most moons get the strongest gravity?
In our solar system, at least, the planet with the greatest mass does happen to be the one with the most known moons. But I think the cause and effect work the other way. It's not the moons that give the planet strong gravity. It's the strong gravity of the planet that captures a bunch of moons.
HHow many moons do the planets have?
Answer: Pluto has 3 moons Neptune has 13 moons (some websites say it only has 8 moons) Uranus has 27 moons (some websites say it has 15 moons, 58, moons or 21 moons) Saturn has 47 moons (some websites say it has 18 moons, 30 moons or 61 moons) Jupiter has 63 moons (some websites say it has 16 moons, 28 moons or 60 moons) Mars has 2 moons Earth has 1 moon Venus has 0 moons Mercury has 0 moons
Does belguese have any moons?
A star can have planets, those planets can have moons: that's the heirarchy. Actually Betelgeuse is a red giant, which means that any planets it might have had are likely to have been swallowed up as the star expanded, which is what will happen to the Earth when the Sun swells up. But it won't happen for the next few billion years.
If the moons movement around earth suddenly slowed don greatly what would happen?
The moon would spiral inward towards the Earth.
Velocity of light was first measured by?
By Roemer, observing the moons of Jupiter.
Will the moons beyond the orbit of callisto have larger or smaller periods than callisto?
If the further moons have the same velocity as Callisto, they will have longer orbital periods. However, if their velocity is greater, they may have shorter orbital periods.
What happen in minsoda in walk to moons?
in walk 2 moons what happed in minsoda
How is tangental velocity related to the moon falling around the earth?
The Moons tangential velocity is constantly changing in direction as it falls around the Earth.
How many full moons happen on a leap year?
A leap year, like normal years, usually has 12 full moons, but can have 13 full moons.
How long is the time period between full moons?
Appeoximately 28 to 29 days. It depends onthe Moon's velocity about the Earth. This velocity and distance vary .
How much speed required to go against gravity?
Assuming there is no air resistance, if an object starts at a speed of 11.2 km/sec, it can escape the gravitational field of Earth. This "escape velocity" is different for different planets, moons, etc.Assuming there is no air resistance, if an object starts at a speed of 11.2 km/sec, it can escape the gravitational field of Earth.

What will happen if 2 moons are on earth?
We will have Morning, night, afternoon, night :)
What is a tide of increased range that occurs two times a month at the new and full moons?
spring tide
What do you predict will happen in 2015?
I don't know how but scientists say that in 2015 there is going to be four moons that are blood red. I think its because 2014-2015 four eclipses will happen, but I don't know what that has to do with four moons.
What would happen if the sun was touching the moons atmosphere?
Our moon has no atmosphere to touch.
