What is the average distance from the center of earth to the center of the moon?
km384,000Average Earth to Moon Distance: 384,403 km Equatorial Radius of the Earth: 6,357 kmEquatorial Radius of the Moon: 1,737 kmTotal: 392,497 km
Which of these does not contribute to the changing of seasons A distance between the Earth and Moon B distance between Earth and Sun C distance between Earth and Venus D alignment of the Universe?
distance between the earth and the sun.
Is the radius of the moon's orbit 0.6 or 6 or 60 times larger than the radius of earth?
My teacher told me it was 60 times.
An astronomical unit is the average distance between the?
One AU is the distance between the Earth and the Sun.
Is the diameter of the sun larger than the distance from earth to the sun?
no
Distance of moon in comparison to radius of earth?
Distance from Earth to Moon is approximately 60.34 times larger than radius of Earth.
If radius of mars is 3397km how many times larger is the earth?
The Earth's radius is6 378.1kmSo that means that the earth is 1.88 (almost 2) times larger.
Why does the weight of an object decrease with increase in distance from the centre of the earth?
Because Earth's gravity is becoming less and less with the larger amount of distance between it and the object.
What is the field strength at a distance one Earth radius beyond the surface?
I assume you mean, of the gravitational field? The gravitational field is inversely proportional to the square of the distance. At a distance of 1 Earth radius, the distance from the center of the Earth is twice the distance at the Earth's surface; thus, the field strength is 1/4 what it is on the surface. If at the surface the field strength is about 9.8 meters per second square, divide that by 4 to get the field strength at a distance of one Earth radius from the surface.I assume you mean, of the gravitational field?

What is the distance from the core of the Earth to the surface of the Earth?
The radius of the Earth is 6378.1 kilometers or about 3961.3 miles
Which is the larger the diameter of the sun or the distance between the sun and the earth?
The diameter of the Sun is approximately 1 million miles; the distance between the Earth and the Sun varies from about 91.5 million to 94.5 million miles. So the distance between is MUCH greater than the diameter.
what Pluto, the dwarf planet, is 5.9 billion kilometers from the Sun. Explain how a model showing the gravitational pull on Pluto would differ from your model of Earth’s orbit.?
The distance between the Sun and Earth is 149,600,000 kilometers, and the distance between the Sun and Pluto is 5.9 billion kilometers. The gravitational pull decreases with an increase in distance. So, the gravitational pull of the Sun on Pluto is much less than its pull on Earth. So, in the model, Pluto’s orbit would have a much larger radius than Earth’s orbit.
Mars is much larger than earth true or false?
False. In volume, Mars is 0.15 times the volume of earth. Mars' radius is roughly half of Earth's radius.
How far is it around the earth at parallel 45?
The Earth is only approximately spherical, not perfectly so. Its polar radius is 6,357 km while the equatorial radius is 6,378 km and a mean radius of 6,371 km. These give estimates for the distance around the Earth, at latitude 45, of between 28,243 km and 28,337 km.
