When does the moon wax?
When the Moon is "waxing", it is increasing in visible size. This is between the new moon to the full moon. When the Moon is "waning" it is decreasing in size, from the full moon to the new moon.
Is the angular size of the moon always big enough to cover up the sun during an e clipse?
No, the moon is somtimes far enough from the Earth that its angular size is smaller than the sun.
What is the Earth's changing distance from the Sun during the year causes the seasons.?
The Earth's changing distance from the Sun during the year causes the seasons.
When the moon waxes during its lunar cycle the amount of its sunlight portion that you see apperas to increase in size?
When the bright part of the moon appears to be larger, it is said to waxing. When the moon appears to be getting smaller, it is waning.
During which season in the northern hemisphere does the earth reach its greatest distance from the sun?
In the summer

Is the skydiver increasing or decreasing his speed during the first 3 seconds?
Increasing.
Does a car accelerate as it moves?
Yes, during any period of increasing or decreasing speed it is accelerating.
Which of these would cause the gravitational force between earth and the sun to decrease?
The combined mass decreasing (eg sun using up fuel). The distance between increasing (eg aphelion , maximum distance during orbit when the earths velocity decreases in compensation).
During the waxing gibbous phase is the amount of illumination increasing or decreasing?
When the visible bright part of the Moon is increasing in size, the term "waxing" is used. When the visible part of the Moon is less and less illuminated each night, the term "waning" applies.
Why does the angular distance from the moon change during each phase cycle?
because the moon is rotaing around earth
Why does a curve on a distance-time indicate acceleration?
an increasing distance is traveled during each unit of time

What are the two parts of fiscal policy?
Fiscal policy is a way in which the government can attempt to influence economic activity through spending and taxation. By either increasing spending or decreasing taxes, the government is often attempting to stimulate economic activity during times of recession. By decreasing spending or increasing taxes, the government is trying to slow down economic activity during times of inflation.
Why does a curve on a distanced graph indicate acceleration?
an increasing distance is traveled during each unit of time
