How would the Moon appear to an observer in space during its revolution Would phases be observable Explain?
During the Moon's revolution, an observer in space would see the moon, but would not be able to see it spin around. From far to the north, about the solar system, the moon would appear to make a squiggly
How many degrees off of the plane of the earth's revolution is the plane of the moon's revolution?
5.1 degrees
How many times the moon rotate on its axis during one trip around the earth?
During one trip around the Earth, the moon rotates one time, because its rotation and revolution are about the same. That is why we only see one side of the moon (the near side) and never the far side.
How many times farther does Earth travel than the moon in one revolution?
The Earth travels 365.25 times farther than the moon in one revolution. The moon's revolution around the Earth takes only one day; the Earth's revolution around the Sun takes 365.25 days.
What would appear different about the moon if it rotated twice during each revolution?
If the moon were to rotate twice during each revolution, the tides on the Earth would appear different. Also, the moon itself would show its far side rather than having the same side facing the planet all the time.
How many earth days are in one moon revolution?
About 1 month
Does the moon turning?
Yes, the moon turns. The moon rotates once on its axis during one revolution around the earth. If it did not rotate, then we would be able to see the entire surface of the moon from earth. The moon is 'tidally locked' with the earth, which is why its period of rotation is the same as its period of revolution.
By how many miles would a spacecraft miss the moon if it were 1 degree off course?
One degree off course is sufficient enough to get a close look of the moon.
What happens during neap tide?
During the first quarter of the moon the moon and sun appear to be at a 90 degree angle.At this time the sun's tidal influence cancels the moon's. The tide then has a minimum range. I used to call them wimpy tides.
How many days does it take for the moon to rotate?
Moon's rotation on its axis, and revolution in its orbitaround the earth, are both 27.32 days.
