Is the sun moving closer to the earth?
No, the sun is not moving closer to the Earth. The distance between the Earth and the sun remains relatively constant due to gravitational forces that keep the two bodies in their respective orbits.
What two tectonic forces keep the earth the same size?
None. The Earth remains the same size because it does not lose or add material (except for meteorites, which are negligable. Tectonic forces move the -parts- of the Earth around, moving the water out of the way as needed, but nothing is added to or taken from the Earth's size.
What is the two things that keep the earth in its orbit around the sun?
The two things that keep the Earth in its orbit around the Sun are the gravitational pull of the Sun, which creates a centripetal force that keeps the Earth moving in a curved path, and the inertia of the Earth, which causes it to continue moving in a straight line unless acted upon by an external force. Together, these two forces balance each other to maintain the Earth's orbit.
What two forces keep the moon and all other satellites in orbit around earth?
Gravity and inertia are the two forces that keep the moon and other satellites in orbit around Earth. Gravity pulls the moon towards Earth, while the moon's inertia keeps it moving forward in a curved path, resulting in a stable orbit.
Why is the moon moving all the time?
Earth's gravity forces the moon into an orbit
Is the sun moving closer to the earth?
No, the sun is not moving closer to the Earth. The distance between the Earth and the sun remains relatively constant due to gravitational forces that keep the two bodies in their respective orbits.
How do planets in the solar system keep moving?
An object has a general tendency to keep moving - that's how our Universe works. No force is required to keep an object moving - unless there is another force that slows it down. Here on Earth, there are usually frictional forces that slow objects down, and therefore a force is required to counteract the frictional forces.
What natural forces keep water moving?
gravity
What two tectonic forces keep the earth the same size?
None. The Earth remains the same size because it does not lose or add material (except for meteorites, which are negligable. Tectonic forces move the -parts- of the Earth around, moving the water out of the way as needed, but nothing is added to or taken from the Earth's size.
When forces are not balanced an object may keep object moving forever true or false?
That's true. Plus ... even if the forces on an object are BALANCED, it can keep moving forever.

Gravity and inertia are the two forces that keep the moon and other satellites in orbit around Earth. Gravity pulls the moon towards Earth, while the moon's inertia keeps it moving forward in a curved path, resulting in a stable orbit.
When forces are not balanced an object keep moving forever?
As long as the forces remain the same or do not change direction
What other forces shaped the earth's crust?
slow moving plate tectonics
Why is the moon moving all the time?
Earth's gravity forces the moon into an orbit
Do inertia pull the moon towards the earth?
No, inertia is trying to keep the moon moving in a straight line, which would be away from Earth. Gravity is pulling the moon towards Earth. The result when these two forces are combined is the moon maintaining a constant orbit of Earth.
Why are balanced forces important in a tennis game?
Because your legs keep moving
