Question

Collect information about the path of revolution of moon around the earth and write a

report.

Note:- This is a project, so I wish the answer would be as long as possible, like 2pages.
No problem even if only one topic is being stretched.​

Answer 1

Answer:

The Moon orbits Earth in the prograde direction and completes one revolution relative to the stars in about 27.32 days (a sidereal month) and one revolution relative to the Sun in about 29.53 days (a synodic month). Earth and the Moon orbit about their barycentre (common center of mass), which lies about 4,600 km (2,900 mi) from Earth's center (about 72% of its radius). On average, the distance to the Moon is about 385,000 km (239,000 mi) from Earth's center, which corresponds to about 60 Earth radii or 1.282 light-seconds.

Answer 2

Answer:

405,400 km (251,900 mi) (avg.) The Moon orbits Earth in the prograde direction and completes one revolution relative to the stars in about 27.32 days (a sidereal month) and one revolution relative to the Sun in about 29.53 days (a synodic month).
