Question

The moon takes about 28 days to orbit the Earth, going a distance of about 2.413 x 10^6 kilometers. About how many kilometers does the Moon travel during one day of its orbit around Earth?

Answer 1

Answer:

Distance cover in 1 days    =   0.08617 \times 10^{6} kilometers

Step-by-step explanation:

Given in question as ,

The total distance travel by Earth , = 2.413 × $10^{6}$ kilometers

The time taken by Moon to orbit the Earth = 28 days

∵ , Distance cover in 28 days =   2.413 × $10^{6}$ kilometers

∴  Distance cover in 1 days     =    $\frac{2.413 \times 10^{6}}{28}$

So,   Distance cover in 1 days    =   0.08617 \times 10^{6} kilometers

Hence The Moon travel 0.08617 \times 10^{6} kilometers during one day of its Orbit around Earth .  Answer
