Does the moon or the sun move?
Answer 1) They all move. But the moon moves around the earth which goes around the sun which is spinning.Answer 2) Both move. The sun rotates on a fixed point. The moon rotates arounds a fixed point and also rotates around the Earth.
Which one of these do not move Sun Moon Earth?
Actually all moves. The sun rotates on its axis. The earth rotates on its axis and revolves around the Sun. The moon revolves around the earth
When the moon rotates around the sun what happens to the moon?
The Moon does not orbit the Sun; it orbits the Earth. The Earth orbits the Sun.
Does the moon rotate around earth?
No The moon roates around the earth. The earth rotates around the sun within the solar system.
Are the phases of the moon caused by the positions of the earth and moon?
Yes. The earth rotates around the sun. The moon rotates around the earth. What make the moon bright is sun light reflecting off its surface. When the moon is full, the side that is facing the earth is also facing the sun, thus the entire moon is lit. As the moon rotates around the earth, the side facing the earth turns away from the sun and isn't illuminated as fully; the moon moves to the next phase.
How do the moon sun and earth move as a system in terms of rotation and revolution?
The Sun stays still while the Earth rotates on its axis while revolving around the Sun. The Moon rotates on its axis while revolving around the Earth.
Is the sun a satillite or a planetWhy?
a planet because other masses rotate around it. a satellite rotates around another mass, ie: our moon rotates around us, making the moon our satellite. the sun doesn't rotate around other masses making it a planet
How many days moon take to rotate around the sun?
The moon takes about 27.3 days to orbit around the Earth, not the sun. This period is called the sidereal month.
Why so many eclipeses?
Because the earth rotates around the sun, and the Moon rotates around the Earth, so we are constantly changing our position as we rotate.
Why isn't the sun blue and the moon red?
Because the moon rotates around the sun and not the other way around. The sun is made up of fire ( therefore red) and the moon space dust so it's blue.
Why does the moon have phaces?
As the moon rotates around the earth the sun reflects off of the moon at different angles(as it may be blocked by the earth). The moon's glow, remember, is only a reflection of the sun's shine.
How do you call it when a moon 1.rotates around itself 2.rotates around its planet and 3.rotates around the Sun at the same time it rotates around the planet?
A moon spinning on its axis is called Rotation. A moon going around its planet is called Orbiting. By Definition, all moons must be orbiting a planet. If the same body were on its own (say, if the Moon were orbiting the Sun without the Earth), it would be defined as a Planet. Thus, Question 3 is the same as Question 2. A planet's trip around the Sun is also called an Orbit. Because our Moon's orbit is so slow compared with our trip around the Sun (only 12 orbits per year), the Moon's path around the Sun would resemble a rounded, 12 sided dodecagon, and over several years would trace a path not unlike a Spirograph design.
