Question

The Moon revolves around the Earth. Model its orbit as circular. Is the Moon’s linear momentum conserved? Is its kinetic energy conserved?

Answer 1

Answer:

The orbit of the moon around the earth

So the orbit may be regarded as nearly circular. ... This is required by the conservation of angular momentum of the Moon with respect to the center of the earth. The total energy of the moon is also conserved since the gravitational field is conservative.
