What else can I help you with?
What causes water to move?
Gravity and the moon and sun
What causes the Earth's oceans to move?
The wind, and the moon.
Do the sun moon and stars appear to rise in the east and set in the west because of the rotation of the moon?
The sun, moon, and stars all appear to rise in the east and set in the west due to the Earth's rotation on its axis. This rotation causes all celestial bodies to appear to move across the sky from east to west. The moon's own orbit around the Earth affects its position, but it does not directly impact the sun and stars.
Do stars move as much as the moon?
Stars appear to move across the sky due to the rotation of the Earth, whereas the Moon moves across the sky due to its orbit around the Earth. The apparent motion of stars is much slower than that of the Moon, which moves visibly over the course of a night.
Why does the moon appear to move so slowly across the sky?
east to west
The strip of the sky through which the sun the moon and the brightest planets appear to move in the course of a year is called what?
The strip of the sky through which the sun, moon, and brightest planets appear to move in the course of a year is known as the ecliptic.
How does a wave move?
The Moon's gravitational pull causes the waves to move between high and low tide.
Why does the moon appear to move from east to west?
The moon appears to move from east to west across the sky due to the rotation of the Earth on its axis. As the Earth rotates from west to east, it causes celestial objects, including the moon, to seem like they are moving in the opposite direction. This apparent motion is similar to how the sun and stars also appear to rise in the east and set in the west throughout the day. Additionally, the moon's orbit around the Earth contributes to its position changing slightly each night.
What causes the moon to appear different from the Earth during its orbit?
The shadows of the earth reflecting from the sun
Why does the appear to move?
The sky does not move and you must be complete looney.
Why does the Moon appear as a bright object in the sky?
The moon is lighted by sunlight. That's why when the Earth is between the sun and the moon the shadow of the Earth causes the Moon to be entirely dark (a lunar eclipse).
Why does the moon seem to move as you move?
The moon appears to move in the sky as you move because of its position relative to the Earth. As you change your viewpoint by moving, the angle at which you see the moon changes, causing it to appear to shift its position in the sky. In reality, the moon is staying in its orbit around the Earth.
