The mean distance of the moon from earth is 2.39x10^5 miles. assuming that the orbit of the moon around earth is circular and the 1 revolution takes 27.3 days, find the linear speed of the moon.
express your answer in miles per hour.

2291,94 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this we need to consider the distance 2.39x10^5 miles as the distance between the center of the earth and the center of the moon, if not we would need to know the radius of the earth and the moon.

If the distance is 2.39x10^5 miles, the orbit is = 2.Pi.(2.39x10^5) miles=1501681.288miles

It takes 27.3 days, that are, 27.3*24= 655.2hours

1501681.288miles/655.2hours= 2291.94 mph

according to the triangle sum theorem, all the angles in a triangle must add up to 180 degrees. if we know one angle is already 90, we do 180-90=90. the other 2 angles must add up to 90, exactly.
