Question

calculate the acceleration of the moon towards earth's center​

Answer 1

Explanation:

The centripetal acceleration of the moon is v2/r. Details of the calculation: (a) The distance the moon travels in 27.3 days is d = 2πr = 2.41*109 m. Its speed is v = d/(27.3 days) = (d/(2.36*106 s)) = 1023 m/s.
