The centripetal acceleration is given by a=

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.
