How many days does it take for both earth and moon to revolve about their common center of mass?

Correct Answer : Option (D) :   Non-coplanar trajectory

Explanation : Coplanar trajectory only occurs when the launch is at a suitable condition where launch latitude matches the moon’s orbital inclination. This is a rare condition which occurs only at Cape Kennedy whose latitude for launch is 28.5 deg. When launches are done at any other location or when the suitable conditions is not met, it results in non-coplanar trajectory.

Correct Answer : Option (D) :   Rotation speed of the earth

Explanation : There are several constraints which carrying out lunar missions. These include-launch site location, accuracy tolerance, limited range of injection conditions, phase of the moon determining the lighting condition, direction of launch from a site.

Correct Answer : Option (B) :   Local sidereal time
