The Moon's average density is about the same as the density of which of the Earth's layers?
The moon's average density is about the same as the density of mantle of the Earth.
Would the tides be higher when the moon is on the same side of the earth as New Brunswick or on the opposite side?
The tides are higher when the moon is on the same side of the Earth as New Brunswick due to the moon's gravitational pull on the water, which causes a bulge in the ocean facing the moon. This is known as the force of attraction.
Do all earth hemispheres see the same side of the moon?
As long as you're on Earth, you will always see the same side of the moon. This is because the moon is tidally locked with the earth, meaning is rotational period is the same as its revolutionary period. This allows us to always see the same side of the moon, no matter where on earth we are.
What is true about the moon's orbit around Earth?
The moon's orbital period is the same as its rotational period, so the same side of the moon always faces the earth.
Does the gibbous moon look the same from all positions on Earth?
Yes. Everyone on earth for whom the moon is visible sees the same phase at the same time.
Is the volume of the moon the same as the pacific ocean?
Almost
Would an object have the same mass density on the moon as it does on earth?
No, the mass density of an object would not be the same on the moon as on Earth. The mass of the object would remain the same, but since the gravitational pull on the moon is weaker than that on Earth, the volume of the object would decrease on the moon, resulting in a different mass density calculation compared to Earth.
Is the Moon smaller than Earth the same size as Earth or larger than Earth?
The Moon is considerably smaller than the Earth. Its volume is about 2% of the Earth's. Its mass is only about 1.2% of the Earth's. Its surface gravity is about 1/6 that of the Earth.
What does Moon rotation cause?
The rotation of the Moon causes it to be tidally locked with the Earth, meaning it rotates on its axis at the same rate that it orbits the Earth. As a result, we always see the same side of the Moon from Earth, known as the near side. This synchronous rotation leads to phenomena such as the lunar phases, which are the result of the Moon's position relative to the Earth and the Sun. Additionally, the Moon's rotation influences its gravitational effects on Earth, contributing to ocean tides.
If the moon is 1m wide and the Earth is four times the size what size is the Earth?
The Earth is much more than 8 times "bigger" than the Moon, but there are several ways in which this could be interpreted; in terms of diameter, surface area, volume, or mass. The Earth is about 5 time larger in diameter than the Moon; the Earth has a diameter of about 13,000 km, while the Moon has a diameter of about 2400 km. In surface area, the difference is more pronounced; the Moon has about the same surface area as the continent of Africa, about 1/15th that of the Earth. By volume, the Moon is only about 1/40th of the Earth's volume, and if measured by mass, the Earth is about 80 times more massive. (The Earth has a much greater density than the Moon does.)
Are the earth and its moon the same shape?
no the earth is bigger than the moon
How many times more massive is the Earth than the moon?
The Earth has 81 times the mass of the Moon, but is only 49.3 times larger by volume. This demonstrates the relatively less dense nature of the Moon compared to Earth, because it does not have the same large, dense iron core.
The Moon's average density is about the same as the density of which of the Earth's layers?
The moon's average density is about the same as the density of mantle of the Earth.
What would happen if the moon was 10 percent of the Earth's diameter?
If the Moon was 10 percent of the Earth's diameter and at the same distance with the same density it would have a different orbital speed, would look smaller and affect the ocean tides less.If it were 10% of Earth's diameter and have the same mass as the present Moon, it would just look smaller and not be able to cause eclipses of the Sun.
Can the gravity in the moon can trigger earthquake in earth?
Earth's tectonic plates ride on a sea of molten rock or magma, and it's possible that the moon's gravity exercises a pull on the magma in the same way as it affects ocean tides. This would be strongest at times when it (the moon) swings close to the earth, or when the sun and moon are in line with the earth in a sun-moon-earth alignment. Wonder if anyone has collected statistics on this.
Why do all places on Earth have the same moon phases on the same day?
All places have the same moon phase because the moon takes 27 days to revolve around the Earth and the Earth takes 24 hours to rotate. The speed of rotation is faster than the moon's revolution making the moon appear unmoving and all parts of Earth having the same moon phase.
How often does the earth set from the moon?
It never does because the same face of the moon is always pointed at Earth. This is due to the fact that the moon revolves around Earth at the same speed it rotates on it's axis, so Earth remains in the same relative location in the sky on the moon.
