Question

If half of the earth was gon what is the chage in moon orbit

Answer 1

Then there may be change in the orbit of the moon. The mass of the earth according to your question reduced to half. ... So the moon will orbit the earth a slower than usual and takes longer time to complete its revolution. It may not change its radius of orbit.

Answer 2

Answer:

A less massive moon would also orbit closer to Earth than the real one. ... This makes it spiral a little farther outward with every orbit around Earth. (Each lunar revolution takes about 29.5 days). If the moon were half its mass, then the ocean tides would have been correspondingly smaller and imparted less energy to it.
