About how many degrees does the Earth move around the sun during one full cycle of the moon?

Answer 1

The moon does not orbit the sun independently; it orbits the earth. So the moon orbits the sun in about 365 and a quarter days, just like earth. Same as the Earth 365 1/4 days Same as the Earth 365 1/4 days

Answer 2

Relative to the fixed stars, the Moon moves about 0.51 degrees per hour.

Relative to an observer on Earth, it's closer to 15 degrees per hour. This apparent motion does not come from the motion of the Moon, but from the rotation of the Earth.

Answer 3

Viewed against the background of distant "fixed" stars, the moon completes

one orbital revolution in 27.32 days.

Observing the "phases" of the moon from Earth, it displays a complete cycle of

shapes every 29.53 days.

Answer 4

The rotation of the moon, or the time it takes to rotate on it's axis exactly once, is

27.322 days.

A complete cycle of the moon's phases (shapes) runs 29.53 days.

Answer 5

No. The moon passes through all its phases about 13 times a year, or once per lunar "moonth." (A month).

Answer 6

it takes the moon 29 days to cycle from new moon to new moon. on the moon, day lasts 2 weeks and then night lasts 2 weeks. so really the moon revolves slower than earth does.

Answer 7

The earth and moon orbit the sun together, once in 365.23 days.

Answer 8

Approximately 27.

Answer 9

360 degrees, once per rotation.

Answer 10

28 days
