The position of the sun and moon in the sky is due to the Earth's rotation on its axis and its orbit around the sun. This natural phenomenon leads to different celestial bodies being visible from different locations on Earth at any given time. It just so happens that the sun is currently visible in America and the moon is visible in Afghanistan due to their positions in the sky.
The sun shines on all sides of the moon- at different times. If you mean does the sun shine on the farside of the moon- away from the earth- yes. When we have a new moon (dark) the sun is shining on the other side. However, when the sun is shining, it is not the darkside- it is light at that moment.
The Sun is at a mean distance of about 150 million kilometers from Earth. The Moon is at a mean distance of 380,000 kilometers from Earth. The direction at which you find them vary over time.
In a solar eclipse, the moon is inbetween the sun and the Earth. This means that the moon casts a shadow on the Earth and block the sun's rays. If the moon is directly in front of the sun, the umbra (darkest part of the shadow) is on the Earth. Otherwise, we will only see the penumbra (where the moon only covers a part of the sun).A solar eclipse is where the earth is inbetween the sun and the moon. This can mean that the moon can disappear from the sky for some time (or the sun will be covered if you are standing on the moon!).
A nonexample of a sun would have to be the moon.

well... if you mean that the moon is closer to the sun than the earth, then yes.
I don't know what you mean, the Sun always "hits the Earth directly". A full moon happens when the Moon is opposite to the Sun in the sky.

There are many places where one could buy a moon necklace. One of the best places to purchase a moon necklace would be a jewellery store like Jared or a website like Amazon.
what does 750p mean on a necklace
It means that only part of the Moon is illuminated by the Sun.
It means that the sun is shinning on the part of the moon that is facing us.
That can refer to two things: A necklace that has the crescent phase of the moon on it. Or a necklace that has a solid wide crescent collar on it.
During a solar eclipse, when the moon moves into the shadow of the sun, it blocks the sunlight, causing a temporary decrease in brightness on Earth. This alignment can create different types of solar eclipses, such as total, partial, or annular eclipses, depending on the degree of coverage.
