What is bigger the diameter of the sun or the distance between earth and moon?
The diameter of the Sun is 1.392×109 mThe distance between the Earth and the Moon is 3.844 *108 mThe Sun is therefore bigger.
How many times is the diameter of the moon smaller than than the diameter of the sun?
The diameter of the Moon is 0.273 times the diameter of the Earth.The diameter of the Sun is 109 times the diameter of the Earth. So:109/0.273=399.27The diameter of the Moon is almost 400 times smaller than the diameter of the Sun.Pwnt, idk u tell me?
Do the sun and moon have the same angular diameter?
It is true that as seen fro the earth the sun and the moon have roughly the same angular diameter. It is for that reason that total solar eclipses are so spectacular.
What is earths moons diameter?
2½ Moon Diameter = Earth's Diameter- 1 Moon Diameter. Earth's Diameter = 7/2 Moon
What is the relative size and distance relationships among the sun earth and moon?
The earth's diameter is 3.67 times the moon's, and 0.0092 of the sun's diameter. The distance to the sun is 391 times the distance to the moon. The moon's diameter is 0.283 of the earth's, and 0.0025 of the sun's. The distance to the earth is 0.0026 times the distance to the sun. The sun's diameter is 109 times the earth's, and 400 times the moon's diameter. On the average over a month, the earth and moon are at equal distances from the sun.

Is the diameter of the sun greater than the diameter of the moon orbiting earth?
Yes. The sun is 1.3 million kilometers across. The moon is never more than a third of that distance from earth and the diameter of its orbit is just over half the sun's diameter. ========================================== The question is not exactly clear. You might be referring to "the moon which orbits Earth", or you could be referring to "the moon's orbit around the Earth". -- The moon's diameter is 3,475 km. The sun's is about 400 times as large. -- The diameter of the moon's orbit is 768,800 km. The sun's diameter is about 80% larger. If the Earth were at the center of the sun, the moon's orbit would be completely inside the sun, about 55% of the way to the surface.
Is the earth moon and sun all spheres?
The Sun, Earth and the Moon are all oblate spheroids. Meaning their equatorial diameter is greater than their polar diameter.
What is bigger the diameter of the sun or the distance between earth and moon?

Is the sun is bigger than a moon?
The sun's diameter is about 400 times as big as our moon's diameter, 108 times as big as the Earth's, and about 10 times the diameter of the biggest planet (Jupiter).
Is the moon really big enough to cover the sun?
Yes. The Sun (or the photosphere which is the brightest part of what we see) has a diameter that is almost exactly 400 times the diameter of the Moon. As the Sun is usually close to 400 times further away from the surface of the Earth than the Moon, when the Earth Moon and Sun line up, a shadow of the Moon is cast on the Earth. Right there the Moon "covers" the Sun. As far as we know this Earth is the only place (among all the known planets - which are not all that many mind you) where the Sun is eclipsed by a moon.
