Is a day on the moon longer or shorter than a moon year?
The Moon "year" is basically the same as the Earth's, because they orbit the Sun together. That's about 365.25 Earth days. A Moon "day" is about 27.3 or 29.5 Earth days, depending on the definition used for day. So, the answer is "shorter".

What would happen if the moon orbited earth in one day?
Techincally speaking that would never happen. The moon would have to be VERY close to the Earth. The moon moves away from the earth 1.75 inches away from the earth each year, making the hours of the day longer. If the moon did orbit the earth in one day, this would happen around the time period the moon formed in space.
