What is the relative locations of the sun earth and the moon during a new moon phase?

During the new moon, the Moon is in the same direction as the Sun - in front of the Sun, basically, since the Sun is farther away.

During the what phase the moon is between earth and the sun?
If the Moon is between Earth and the Sun, it is not a phase, at all . . . it is a solar eclipse.
Would we see lunar phases if the moon did not rotate while it orbits earth?
Yes, it doesn't matter that the Moon rotates on its axis, that makes no difference to the phase. The phase only depends on the relative positions of the Sun, Earth and Moon.
What is the appearance of the moon during a new moon phase?
go somewhere on the other side of earth and there will be a full moonAdditional answer.No there won't! The phase of the Moon is more or less the same wherever you are on Earth. Because its position in the sky relative to Earth and the Sun means that the face pointing to Earth is unlit. As the month progresses the relative positions change and more and more of the face we see is lit, so it starts off as a small crescent and gradually gets bigger.But the lit side faces the opposite way in the northern and southern hemispheres. And you won't see the Moon from anywhere on Earth during new moon.
When is DNA replicated in a cells?
During S phase :)
What is the moon position relative to the Earth during a lunar eclipse?
In a solar eclipse, the shadow of the Moon hits the Earth. This can only happen when the Moon is directly, almost perfectly, between the Sun and the Earth. So solar eclipses can only happen at the new moon phase.

The moon cannot be seen from earth during which phase?
New moon
The moon cannot be seen from Earth during this phase?
New moon.

What is Physical interpretation of in phase and out of phase?
Two locations are said to be "in phase" when the waveform is "lined up" so there is no voltage difference between the two points.They are out of phase if there is a voltage difference between them.If you are looking at an oscillograph reading of both, if they are in phase the waveforms will be identical magnitude at the same time. If out of phase, one will be shifted relative to the other causing a voltage difference.
What the changing in appearance of the moon as viewed from the earth due to the relative positions of the moon earth and sun?
Phases, a phase depends on how much of the sunlit side of the moon faces.

What does the phase on the moon you see depend on?
The phases of the moon are dependant on the relative positions of the sun, moon and earth. It's the angle between the view-lines to the sun and the moon, with you at the vertex of the angle. The phase of the moon you see depends on how much of the sunlit side of the moon faces earth.
How do you calculate 3 phase earth fault loop?
You can't have a three phase earth fault, you can have a phase to phase or a phase to earth fault. If you want the potential phase to earth fault current it will be your voltage times your impedance. If you want the phase to phase potential fault current then you should just double the above result.
How much time does the moon takes to revolve around the earth?
The moon's synodic period, the time it takes to come back to the same phase relative to the Earth and Sun, varies but, on average, is 29.53 days.
