Its speed is not always constant; because of its orbit, it sometimes goes faster or slower. However, its appearance changes because of where it is compared to the earth and sun - when the sun shines on part of it, that part is visible, but where it is in shadow, it is not visible.
What else can I help you with?
The moon accelerates because it is What?
The moon accelerates because it is always changing direction. :)
The moon accelerates because?
the moon is in a constant state of free fall towards Earth due to gravity. This acceleration causes the moon to constantly change direction as it orbits Earth, resulting in its circular path around our planet.
What is the process that causes the moon to change phases?
The moon changes phases because different portions of the moon are illuminated by the sun, as seen by observers on Earth. The angle formed by the sun, the Earth, and the moon, is constantly changing as the Earth orbits the sun and the moon orbits the Earth.
How many times does the sun orbits the earth in a year?
Only once, that is why we have winter, summer, spring, and fall
The moon orbits what planet?
The moon with the specific name 'The Moon' orbits planet Earth.
Is the amount of the water on earth always changing or is it a constant amount?
water on the earth remains constant.man :)
Is the amount of water on earth always changing of is it a constant amount?
water on the earth remains constant.man :)
How earth moves to cause day and night?
The Earth orbits the sun. While it orbits, the Earth spins on its axis. When the Earth spins, some part is always facing the sun, but some is not. This constant spinning creates day and night.
When does the moon move?
It always moves it orbits the Earth which orbits the sun.
Which example describes constant acceration due only to a change in direction?
Centrepetal force-orbits E.G. Earth orbits the sun at a constant speed but also changes its direction, thus its velocity. This means that the almost constant change in velocity causes there to be a constant acceleration because of the change on direction.
How does temperature change with the seasons?
When the Earth orbits the sun different sides of the earth face the sun.Therefore changing the temperature.
Is the Texas climate changing?
The climate everywhere remains in a constant state of flux. It is always changing. It Texas, as across most of earth, the climate is currently changing substantially faster than by any strictly natural means.
Is gravity always constant on Earth?
No, gravity is not always constant on Earth. It can vary slightly depending on factors such as altitude, latitude, and the density of the Earth's crust.
The moon accelerates because it is What?
The moon accelerates because it is always changing direction. :)
The moon accelerates because?
the moon is in a constant state of free fall towards Earth due to gravity. This acceleration causes the moon to constantly change direction as it orbits Earth, resulting in its circular path around our planet.
As earth orbits the sun it is moving about?
Yes. The Earth, our Sun and indeed all planets, stars and galaxies are in constant motion.
Why velocity is not constant if satellite travels with constant spped at a fixed elevatiopn?
Speed is a scalar quantity meaning it has only magnitude. Velocity is a vector meaning it has magnitude and direction. Whilst the satellite's speed is constant its direction is constantly changing. If its direction didn't change it would fly off in a straight line. Since its direction is changing, the velocity must be changing. And also since the velocity is changing, the satellite is also accelerating (towards the centre of the earth).
