How are the movements of the sun and the moon similar to an observer on earth?
From an observer on Earth, both the sun and the moon appear to rise in the east and set in the west due to the rotation of the Earth. The sun and the moon also appear to move across the sky in an arc, with the sun following a daily path and the moon following a monthly path.
Why do sun and moon look the same?
The sun and moon appear similar in size due to an optical illusion. Although the sun is much larger than the moon, it is also much farther away from Earth. This results in them appearing to be similar in size when viewed from our perspective on Earth.
What direction does the sun rise on the moon?
The sun rises on the moon in the east and sets in the west, similar to how it does on Earth. This is because both celestial bodies rotate on their axis, causing the apparent movement of the sun across their respective skies.
What object follows the same orbit as earth in its journey around the sun?
The Moon follows a similar orbit as Earth in its journey around the sun, but it orbits Earth rather than the sun. This shared orbit is due to the Moon being Earth's natural satellite.
Why does the appearance of the moon throughout its cycle?
Because the moon is in orbit around the earth and the sun is shining on a certain point of the moon. We can see the changes from our perspective. This is similar to a shadow. Sometimes we can only see a sliver of the moon because the sun is almost directly facing the moon and we can't see that side.
