Question

The moon is nearly 385000km away from the earth . it takes a round of the earth every month. How much distance does it travel in one month?

Answer 1

Assuming the path is completely circular , we can write the distance it travel in one month =2×(22/7)×385000=242000 km

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution :

Moon Revolves round the earth .

The distance travelled is simply the circumference of circle .

we know that ,

Circumference Of Circle = 2*π*r (where r is radius of Circle)

Here Distance Between earth and moon = Radius of Circle = 385000kms

therefore distance traveled by moon in a month = 2*π*r

=2*22/7*385000 kms

=2*22*55000kms

=44*55000 kms

=2.4×10^6 km
