What path will the moon take when the gravitational interaction between the moon and earth dis appears

Tangential. according to Newton 's theory it happens as soon as the interaction disappears. but According to Einstein it will take some time


prithijit04: When gravity disappears this hypothetical situation itself states that the bending of the space is just lost. and so to conserve that energy it produce gravitational wave. It may be small but not insignificant.
prithijit04: You can say that
prithijit04: There is no point to discuss this matter. Bcoz u can't vanish gravity in space until and unless u vanishes the mass. Otherwise the situation itself don't obey Einstein ' s theory. As though there is mass in space but the bending suddenly disappears
prithijit04: thus we should analyse this situation using Newton ' s gravitational theory.
prithijit04: That would be comfortable for all of us

It can't happen first.

Due to conservation of angular momentum moon might follow a trajectory with conserving angular momentum into linear momentum.direction of the velocity vector:-)


prithijit04: Do u know the direction of velocity vector is always tangential to earth??
prithijit04: It is always true for any kind of circular motion
prithijit04: Then
