Question

Since Moon is attracted to Earth, why doesn't it fall onto Earth? because it has large tangential velocity because there is another equal force on the Moon that balances gravity because centrifugal force balances gravity because centrifugal force more than balances gravity because it has too much inertia to fall towards Earth A. Ocean tides occur mainly because water always runs to the low spot water always runs to the side of the Earth away from the Moon B. water is evaporated on the sunny side of the Earth only as the Earth rotates it leaves the ocean water behind due to its inertia O of different gravitational pulls of the Moon on the opposite sides of the Earth Ocean tides are influenced by Moon's gravity Sun's gravity both of the above neither A spaceship is traveling to the Moon. At what point is it beyond the pull of Earth's gravity? When it gets above the atmosphere. When it is half-way there. When it is closer to the Moon than it is to Earth. It is never beyond the pull of Earth's gravity.

Answer 1

(A) - it's answer is- because it has too much of inertia to fall towards the earth.

(B)- Ocean tides occur mainly because of different gravitational pulls of moon on the opposite side of the earth.

(C)- it's answer is - both of the above.

(D)- it's answer is - When it is closer to the moon than it is to the earth.
