How long would a day be on the moon?
If you stay in one place on the moon, then the sun rises, stays up for about 2 Earth weeks, then sets, and stays down for about another 2 Earth weeks. That makes a complete "day" on the moon as long as 27.3 earth-days.
How long is the moon's day and night?
One complete lunar 'day' is about 29.5 Earth days. So any spot on the moon has the sun up in its sky and light for 14.7 Earth days, followed by the sun down and not in the sky and darkness for the next 14.7 Earth days.
Why the moon have day and night?
The moon circles the earth once every 28 days approximately. It keeps the same face towards the earth at all times and so as it circles the earth this means that, relative to the sun, it rotates once on its axis in this time. Therefore the moon shows its rear side towards the sun when it is a new moon (and the face of the moon facing earth is dark), and its earth-facing sun towards the sun when it's full moon (and the moon is bright). This new moon and full moon cycle lasts once every fourteen days. Therefore the moon's night is 14 earth days long, and its day is also 14 earth days long.
