Respuesta :

The moon's rotational period is 27.3 days....its revolution period is 27 days. Even though the rotational period is 0.3 days longer than the revolution period, I don't think the lesson would be so exact, so I would go with C. They are equal.

Hope this helps! Have a great day :-)

The statement, that describes the moons period of rotation or its period of revolution is "they are equal."

What is the period of rotation and revolution?

A celestial object's period of rotation is the amount of time it takes to rotate once around on its axis. The average time required for one body, such as a planet, to complete a revolution about another body is referred to as the period of revolution.

The period of revolution, or orbit, of the Moon around the Earth is 27.3 days, which is the same as the period of rotation, or spin. As a result, we only view the Moon's front side, which is always facing the Earth. The moon's rotational period equals one revolution around the Earth. The moon's rotational duration differs from one revolution around the Earth.

Hence the correct answer is C.
