They are both round
What else can I help you with?
What do we see when the moon is in between the earth and the sun (but not in the same plane)?
When the moon is in between the earth and the sun, but not in the same plane, we see a solar eclipse.
What is the distance between earth and heaven?
In terms of physical measurement, the distance between Earth and heaven is not known as heaven is considered a spiritual or metaphysical realm, not a physical location in space. Different belief systems and cultures have their own interpretations of where or what heaven is.
Is a lunar eclipse the same as a new moon?
No, a lunar eclipse is not the same as a new moon. A lunar eclipse occurs when the Earth passes between the sun and the moon, casting a shadow on the moon. A new moon is when the moon is positioned between the Earth and the sun, so it is not visible from Earth.
Why do all places on Earth have the same moon phases on the same day?
All places have the same moon phase because the moon takes 27 days to revolve around the Earth and the Earth takes 24 hours to rotate. The speed of rotation is faster than the moon's revolution making the moon appear unmoving and all parts of Earth having the same moon phase.
Why do you not see the far side of the moon?
cuz +he moon spin and orbi+ happen at +he same speed. Tidal forces between earth and the moon have slowed the moon's rotation in a manner that causes the same side of the moon to always be facing earth.
What type of moon happens when The moon and sun are on the same side of Earth?
A new moon occurs when the Moon is positioned between the Earth and the Sun, with the Sun's light illuminating the side of the Moon facing away from Earth. This alignment creates a moon that is not visible from Earth.
How does the moon rotate with the earth?
The moon rotates on its axis at the same rate it orbits around the Earth, known as synchronous rotation. This means we always see the same side of the moon from Earth. The gravitational forces between the Earth and the moon have caused this synchronization over time.
What is the gravitational weight difference between the moon and earth?
The weight of an object on the moon's surface is 16.3% of the same object's weight on the earth's surface.
Your moon always shows the same face to the earth?
The moon always shows the same face to the Earth due to its synchronous rotation, meaning it takes the same amount of time to rotate on its axis as it does to orbit the Earth. This synchronization occurs because of the gravitational forces between the Earth and the moon.
Is the moon a third of earth?
No. The moon is the same size as the earth. We just see it the way we so because of the distance between them.
What is it when the earth is between the sun and the moon?
When the Earth is between the Moon and the Sun you get a full moon, not a new Moon which occurs when the Moon is between the Earth and the Sun. You could also get a Lunar eclipse.
How moon moves?
The moon moves in its orbit around the Earth due to the gravitational force between the two bodies. This orbit is not circular but elliptical, causing the moon's distance from Earth to vary. Additionally, the moon rotates on its axis at the same rate that it orbits the Earth, resulting in the same side of the moon always facing Earth.
