This expression explicity depends on Moon's speed which i s non trivial . we can work with the formula w

Since,

a

→ centrifugal acceleration of the moon due to earth's gravity

w→ angular velocity

m is the distance between earth and the moon, which is 60 times the radius of the earth.

Explanation:

igneous rocks also form where plates converge. the subducting plate melts as it sinks into the crust of the earth, and the melt rises into the overriding plate forming volcanoes. metamorphic rocks are formed mainly in the lithosphere, wherever there is high pressure and high temperature. -woods
