On Apollo missions to the Moon, the command module orbited at an altitude of 160 km above the lunar surface. How long did it take for the command module to complete one orbit?

T = 2.06h

Explanation:

In order to calculate the time that the Apollo takes to complete an orbit around the moon, you use the following formula, which is one of the Kepler's law:

        (1)

T: time for a complete orbit = ?

r: radius of the orbit

G: Cavendish's constant = 6.674*10^-11 m^3.kg^-1.s^-2

Mm: mass of the moon = 7.34*10^22 kg

The radius of the orbit is equal to the radius of the moon plus the distance from the surface to the Apollo:

Rm: radius of the moon = 1737.1 km

Then, you replace all values of the parameters in the equation (1):

In hours you obtain:

The time that the Apollo takes to complete an orbit around the moon is 2.06h

the simple machine has three main features. they are:

fulcrum is the center point or pivot point of the machine. effort is input force/ applied force. load is external force/ output.

the keisha 's machine labels are

x : load

y: fulcrum

z: lever

molecules are free to separate from each other and will take on the shape of the container. molecules move completely at random and high speeds. they vibrate in a fixed position and do not move around much. molecules expand to the edge of their container.
