THE EARTH AND THE MOON

By Cecily Davis

Page 2: By Cecily Davis. MOONEARTH  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

Gravity

MOON 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

Page 3: By Cecily Davis. MOONEARTH  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

Size

MOON 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 Craters

CRATERS 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 Atmosphere

MOON 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

WATER

MOON EARTH

NASA has found some frozen water on the moon.

The earth is made up of 71 percentage of water

WEATHERING and EROSION

MOON EARTH

Weathering will happen because of space rocks

Weathering is the breaking down or dissolving of rocks

Time to rotate on its axis

MOON 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 revolve

AROUND 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

Page 10: By Cecily Davis. MOONEARTH  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

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
