Of the moon, we always see a hemisphere and a little more because its rotation is synchronous and blocked by the tide. This means that one lunar rotation on its axis corresponds to the time of revolution around Earth, equal to 29.5 days. On a daily basis, the moon appears to move eastw...
The pull of the moon is alsoslowing the Earth's rotation, an effect known as tidal braking, which increases the length of our day by 2.3 milliseconds per century. The energy that Earth loses is picked up by the moon, increasing its distance from the Earth, which means the moon gets fart...
As the moon's revolution cycle is the same as its rotation cycle, the same side always faces Earth. The other face, most of which cannot be seen from Earth, is called the far side or "dark side" of the moon. This term doesn't refer to visible darkness, but rather the mystery shrou...
A 选项 “It's rotation”(它自身的旋转),自身旋转并不能解释为什么会减缓,所以 A 选项错误。C 选项 “The Moon's gravity”(月球的引力),月球引力主要影响其周围的物体,比如对地球海洋产生一定的潮汐作用等,但并非是减缓月球自转的原因,所以 C 选项错误。而地球的引力(The Earth's gravity)通过长期的潮汐力...

Moon - Phases, Orbit, Tides: The study of the Moon’s motions has been central to the growth of knowledge not only about the Moon itself but also about fundamentals of celestial mechanics and physics. As the stars appear to move westward because of Earth
Rotation on axis Because the mass of the Moon is greater on one side than the other, the gravity of the Earth causes the Moon to keep the denser side always facing the Earth. Thus, the Moon rotates on its axis at the same rate as its orbit around the Earth. ...
The Moon is about half the density of the Earth. Rotational Period This is how long the Moon takes to rotate once on its axis. As for many satellites, the period of rotation is the same as the orbital period. One side of the Moon always faces the Earth. We can never see the far ...
The utility model relates to an earth and moon synchronous rotation globe. The utility model is composed of a sun sphere, an earth sphere, a moon sphere, an earth orbit, moon orbits, a fixing device for the run of a celestial body and a bracket. A moon shaft is sheathed on an earth...
