If standing on the surface of the moon might see which one what an eclipse of the moon or eclipse of the earth or the moon or an eclipse of the sun or eclipse of the earth or the sun?

If you were standing on the Moon, it would be easy to notice a solar eclipse; the Earth would block out the Sun, all over the Moon, for an hour or so. On the Earth, we would have called it a lunar eclipse. From the Moon, it would be difficult to notice an Earth eclipse; the shadow of the Moon on the Earth, so obvious when you're in the dark at midday, wouldn't be so obvious from 250K miles away; a small dark circle on the Earth.

Why moon rotates slower than earth?

The influence of the Earth has slowed down the rotation of the moon.


If you were standing on the moon where would the earth be?

The Moon has a synchronous rotation - every time it goes around the Earth, it rotates once around its own axis. If you stand on the side of the Moon that is directed towards Earth, you would always see the Earth in the sky - more or less in the same direction. There would be slight changes, though, due to the elliptical orbit of the Moon, and the tilt of the Moon's axis. If you stand on the back side of the Moon - the side that is not visible from Earth - Earth would always be below the horizon for you.


Why does the moon have an influence on the Earth?

The moon's gravity pulls on the oceans and causes tices.
