The half, because the full moon is as light again.
Does the earth or sun cast a shodow on the moon?
The sun is the big flashlight that lights up everything it can reach. The earth is the thing that gets in the way of the flashlight, & can darken the moon if the moon passes through its shadow.
What happend to the other side of the moon in half moon day?
Nothing happens to the other side of the Moon in half moon days. The reason we do not see the whole Moon is because only half of it is reflecting the light from the Sun.
Why do you have a half moon?
It's because of the angle of the sun and the way it reflects on the moon.
What happens to the moon when its a half-moon?
The moon is only visible because of the sun's light, which is why the moon appears to glow. When there is a half moon, only half of the moon is reflecting off the sun's light. It all has to do with the angle of the moon, the sun, and the Earth, which is why the moon has so many different phases.
Why are the semilunar valves called semilunar valves?
semilunar valves are called semilunar because they look like half a moon. If something is not full in biology it is called 'semi' and lunar means the moon. So basicaly its called that because the valve looks like a half moon.
why hypothetical scenario would result in the moon not having different phases?
Because the phases of the moon are Half Full and Half full.
When you see a half moon what is the position of the Sun?
When you see a half moon, the position of the Sun is either directly to the right or left of the Moon as viewed from Earth. This is because a half moon occurs when the Sun, Earth, and Moon form a 90-degree angle, with the Sun illuminating half of the side facing Earth.
What blocks the moon when it is half a moon?
The object that blocks the moon when there is a half moon is the moon itself. The moon is a sphere, so only one half of it can be sunlit at any moment. The other half is dark just because the sun is below the horizon for that half of the moon. And when we see a half moon, we are simply looking at the moon just as the line of sunrise/sunset cuts across the moon's diameter.
What cast the shadow on the moon during the day time?
The moon does.The sun only lights up half the moon (the side of the moon the sun is on). The other half of the moon is dark, because the sun's light is blocked by the moon itself.
