What makes moon revolve?
the earths gravity holds the moon so it orbits the earth.
Which list of three planets and earths moon is arranged in order of increasing equatorial diameter?
The order of increasing equatorial diameter for the three planets and Earth's moon is: Earth's Moon, Mercury, Mars, and then Venus. Earth's Moon has the smallest diameter, followed by Mercury, which is slightly larger, then Mars, and finally Venus, which is the largest of the four.
What is the circumference of the Earths moon?
The moon is about one fourth the size of the Earth. It has an equatorial circumference of 10,917 kilometers, or 6783.5 miles.
Can a moon revolve around a planet?
It has to do that.
When spacecraft goes on moon how it revolves after leaving earths gravitational pull?
ahhh now.... When a spacecraft leaves earths atmoshere it does not leave earths gravitational pull! the moon itself is in earths gravitational pull. which is what stops the moon from floating away so as far as i can imagine if you put a space craft on the moon you have not left earths gravitational pull or the E.G.P

Which does the moon revolve around the earth?
The Moon orbits Earth in the prograde direction and completes one revolution relative to the stars in approximately 27.323 days (a sidereal month). Earth and the Moon orbit about their barycentre (common center of mass), which lies about 4,600 km (2,900 mi) from Earth's center (about 3 /4 of the radius of Earth). On average, the distance to the Moon is about 385,000 km (239,000 mi) from Earth's centre, which corresponds to about 60 Earth radii. With a mean orbital velocity of 1.022 km/s (2,290 mph),[8] the Moon appears to move relative to the stars each hour by an amount roughly equal to its angular diameter, or by about half a degree. The Moon differs from most satellites of other planets in that its orbit is close to the plane of the ecliptic, and not to Earth's equatorial plane. The plane of the lunar orbit is inclined to the ecliptic by about 5°, whereas the Moon's equatorial plane is inclined by only 1.5° to the ecliptic.
What is the Equatorial diameter of the moon?
The equatorial diameter of the moon is 2,159.2 miles. The circumference is 6,783.5 miles. It has a mean radius of 1,079.6 miles.
Why does the earth revolve and the moon doesn't?
Moon also revolve. Earth revolve round the sun and moon revolve round the earth.
Is the force of gravity on the Moon's surface is weaker than that on the earths surface?
Yes. That's why when astronauts land there their steps are longer and why they don't way as much there. It's also why we don't revolve (literally) around the moon
What is the circumference of the Earths moon?
The moon is about one fourth the size of the Earth. It has an equatorial circumference of 10,917 kilometers, or 6783.5 miles.
Do the earth and moon revolve at the same speed?
It take 27.32 days for the moon to revolve around the earth. At the same time, the Earth and moon revolve as a bound pair around the sun every 365.25 days.
How many days that it takes the moon to revolve around the earth?
It will take the moon 27.32 days to revolve around the earth.

Is the moons orbit in the same 3d plane as earths orbit?
No. For one thing, a plane is, by definition, 2-dimensional. The moon's orbit is tilted about 5 degrees relative to Earth's orbit.
