Why doesn't the Moon crash into the Earth?
a. The Earth's magnetic field prevents the moon from falling.
b. The Moon is beyond the pull of the Earth's gravity.
c. The Moon is moving so fast that it falls around the Earth instead.
d. The Earth's gravity is too weak to pull anything as big as the Moon.
Homework Answers
(c). The Moon is moving so fast that it falls around the Earth instead.
The Moon doesn't crash into the Earth because the moon has a sufficient large orbital speed.

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...

The moon does not fall to earth because: The moon is beyond the main pull of Earth's gravity. The moon is pulled by the sun and planets as well as by Earth. The gravitational force provides the required centripetal force for the moon to have its tangential speed around the Earth. The net force on the moon is zero. The moon is in earth's gravitational field. Question 3 (4 points) The tallest mountain in our solar system is Mt. Caloris...

Earth's magnetic field varies in magnitude and direction from point to point in space. This spatial variation is characterized by the gradient and curvature of the field. Together, the field's gradient and curvature cause charged particles in the plasmasphere to experience a "longitudinal drift", resulting in an orbital motion around the Earth. Use the following formula (instead of textbook eq. 6.64) tau_d=2piqBr^2/3E_k, r=R_E+h, B=B_0(R/r)^3 to calculate the longitudinal drift orbital periods of 10 MeV protons at orbit altitudes of h=500...

Tethers are long dangling wires that use the velocity of a spacecraft through the Earth's magnetic field to generate electrical power. Alternatively, electrical currents pushed through the tether might be used to change the spacecraft velocity for either propulsion or for braking and reentry. Several 'space tether experiments have been flown to investigate the possible use if Faraday's law for power generation and/or propulsion. Examples are the 1996 joint US/Italy effort to deploy a 20 km tether from one of...

Suppose that an object with a mass of one kilogram and an object with a mass of two kilo the Earth's surface. As compared to the one kilogram object, the two kilogram object accelerates grams are both in free fall near O A more because gravity pulls on it more strongly. O B less because it has more inertia. O Cthe same because gravity pulls on it more strongly and it has more inertia. O D more because gravity pulls...
