The Physical features of moon are-

Distance. The Moon is approximately 384,400 km (239,000 miles) from the Earth. ...Size. The diameter of the Moon is 3479 kilometers (2162 miles). Motion. ...Moon causes tides. ...Moon may influence "lunatics"
The density of the Moon is 3340 kg/m3.Density problemCan you verify the density of the Moon?Density = mass divided by volume, d = m/V.The volume of a sphere = 4/3 times pi times its radius cubed,
V = 4*π*r3/3.
Temperature

The average temperature on the surface of the Moon during the day is 107°C. That is hot enough to boil water on the Earth. During the night, the average temperature drops to −153°C.

Motion

The Moon revolves around the Earth in an elliptical orbit every 27.3 days. The same side of the Moon always faces the Earth. Due to the angle of the Sun on the Moon, we see different portions of Moon illuminated. These are called the phases of the Moon.
