The phases of the Moon are caused by the angle between the Moon and the Sun changing. At one time we see the illuminated side, at another time, its dark side. The full cycle is 29 1/2 days.

The phases are basically caused by the Moon revolving in its orbit around the Earth.
The motion of the Earth and Moon around the Sun has a small effect too.
So, the Moon orbits Earth in about 27.3 Earth days, but the complete phase cycle takes about 29.5 Earth days.
The Moon's rotation period is exactly equal to its orbital period.
This results in the Moon having a "day" of about 29.5 Earth days.
So, the Moon's day length is related to the phases of the Moon.
However, I wouldn't say it was the cause of the phases.
The different phases of the moon are caused by the moon's 28-day lunar cycle.
It keeps going around the earth aproximately every 29 days and has done so for a long time and will continue to for a long time (unless something big happens).ps i enjoy pie
The different phases of the moon are caused by the moon's near 28-day orbit of the earth.
We see a portion of the half of the moon that's illuminated by the sun.
The answer would most likely be revolution of the Moon around the Earth
it .is caused by the reflection of light from the sun changing acording to the place of the moon from the sun

The pattern of the moon phases repeats exactly every 29.5 days!
This question is not answerable as phases of the moon change every week.
yes, the moon phases change every day. as long as the moon keeps orbiting earth, that will happen.
The moon's phases result directly from the moon's synodic period, the length of time it takes for the moon to move from one location relative to the sun back to the same location relative to the sun after orbiting earth. This connection with the sun makes perfect sense since the phases of the moon have everything to do with its appearance to us in terms of how much or how little of its visible surface is illuminated by the sun.
Every month as the Moon cycles through its phases it appears to change shape. The Moon always has the same spherical shape, but stargazers on Earth see different fractions of the dark and illuminated portions of the Moon as the Moon orbits Earth. The common urban myth that Earth's shadow falling on the Mooncauses lunar phases is incorrect.

Lunar phases lasts about 3 1/2 days. The moon doesn't change phases fast enough to change on a nightly basis. It takes several days.

The moon displays a complete cycle of its 'phases' every 29.5 days.
print out a calender and go outside every night and chart the moon for a month. then you would have seen the all the moon phases!
if you pick up every thing

Every sound vibrates with a particular fundamental frequency. When you change the wavelength of a sound, you change the pitch of a sound.
