Basically because the moon revolves around the earth so therefore it circles the sun to. It doesn't orbit it but it does go around it.
What do you mean "if it could"? The Moon does circle the Sun, together with planet Earth. Once a year.
Once a year since it's in our orbit.
When the moon is a complete circle, it is called a full moon. This occurs when the Earth is between the sun and the moon, with the side of the moon facing Earth fully illuminated by the sun.
Earth takes 365 days (1 year) to revolve around Sun Moon takes 29.5 days (1 Month) to revolve around Earth So Moon would complete approx. 12 revolutions (that's why we have 12 months) in 1 Year
circle
The moon appears as a bright circle during the full moon phase. This occurs when the Earth is directly between the sun and moon, with the sun fully illuminating the side of the moon facing Earth, making it appear as a complete circle.
The moon circles the earth...
the earth is a bit flattened but the moon has a brilliant circle
actually several comets circle the sun a year!
Well, last time I checked, the moon orbited the earth, not the sun. You might , however, argue, that it orbits the sun TOGETHER with earth, then it would take a year to make a full circle around it.
A full moon is a moon that appears as a complete circle in the sky, when the Earth is positioned between the sun and the moon, illuminating the entire near side of the moon.
When the moon appears as a full circle, it is known as a "full moon." This occurs when the Earth is between the sun and the moon, causing the moon to be fully illuminated from our perspective.
