. The Moon has an average distance from the Earth of 384,403 km and takes 27.32166 days to orbit the Earth. What is the velocity of the Moon in kilometers per hour

Velocity of moon = 586.23 km/h

Explanation:

We are given;

Distance of moon from the Earth = 384403 km

Time taken to orbit earth;t = 27.32166 days

24 hours make 1 day, thus 27.32166 days = 27.32166 × 24 = 655.72 hours

Formula for velocity is distance/time

Thus,

Velocity of moon = distance from moon to earth/time taken to orbit the earth

Velocity of moon = 384403/655.72 = 586.23 km/h

the body's situation won't change the forces are equal opposit and on the same body
