THE EARTH AND THE MOON
By Cecily Davis
GravityMOON EARTH The moon’s gravity is
1.622m/s2. That is about 6 times less than earth’s gravity!
The earth’s gravity is 9.78 m/s2. That is about 6 times more gravity than the moon
SizeMOON EARTH
The size of the moon is about 3,474 kilometers. That is 9,268 kilometers less than the Earth
The size of the Earth more is about 12,742 kilometers . That is about 9,268 kilometers more than the moon.kilometers than the moon
Landforms and CratersCRATERS ON THE MOON LANDFORMS ON EARTH
The craters on the moon are caused by space rocks that hit the moon
There are many different landforms on earth such as Bays, canyons, cliffs, hills, islands, lakes, and plains.
Weather and AtmosphereMOON EARTH The moon has NO
atmosphere or weather. The only thing that keeps it in orbit is earth’s gravity
The earth has atmosphere and weather such as rain , snow, and hail
WATERMOON EARTH
NASA has found some frozen water on the moon.
The earth is made up of 71 percentage of water
WEATHERING and EROSIONMOON EARTH Weathering will
happen because of space rocks
Weathering is the breaking down or dissolving of rocks
Time to rotate on its axisMOON EARTH It takes 27 hours 43
minutes and 11.6 seconds for the moon to rotate on its axis.
The length of the rotation on its axis is 24 hours
Time to revolveAROUND THE EARTH AROUND THE SUN It takes the moon 29
days to revolve It takes 365 days and 6
hours for the earth to revolve around the sun
How the moon effects tides
The moon’s gravitational pull causes the oceans tide to change.
What causes seasons? The earth is tilted at a 23.45 degree
tilt so when the sun shines on our earth it causes our seasons
