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.


How are the sun and moon related to the thing that happen as the earth moves?

... as the earth moves? as in, an earthquake? Sorry, honey, but the sun and the moon have NOTHING to do with that.


How much does the moon move away from earth each year?

The moon moves away from Earth at a rate of approximately 1.5 inches (3.8 cm) per year due to tidal forces. This gradual drift is caused by the transfer of Earth's rotational energy to the moon's orbital motion.


As the Moon moves away from its position on the side of Earth away from the Sun?

This is not a question, but an incomplete sentence.


What would happen if the moon slowly moved away from earth?

The moon does slowly move away from earth at an estimated two inches every year, it is a possibility that (if you believe in the apocalypse) the cause for the fall of Earth is the moon losing its orbit with earth and drifting away.


Eclipse why does it happen?

A solar eclipse is when the moon moves in front of the sun casting a shadow on earth. A lunar eclipse is when the earth moves in front of the sun so the moon gets no light

What do you see when the Moon moves away from between the Sun and Earth?

When the Moon moves away from between the Sun and Earth, a solar eclipse ends, and the full brightness of the Sun is no longer obscured. The Moon's movement allows sunlight to be fully visible again from Earth, ending the eclipse phenomenon.


3 How much does the moon moves away from the earth each year?

The answer is different depending on who you ask. Some astronomer say the moon moves about one centimeter away from Earth each year. Others say about an inch to an inch and a half.


Over millions of years the moon is moving further away from the earth what will happen to the gravitational attraction between the moon and the earth as the moon gets further away?

As the moon gets further and further away, the gravitational force between the Earth and the Moon decreases. Because the Moon is not being attracted but being pushed away from the Earth. If the gravitational force would have increased, the moon would come closer and closer to the Earth.


When the shadow of the earth falls on the moon you experience a?

New moon. No, no, no. It is an eclipse of the moon. ( A new moon is when the illuminated face of the moon faces away from the earth, and as it moves around in its orbit you catch a glimpse of a tiny arc of its illuminated surface).


What does the moon appear to be doing as it moves away from its position between the sun and the earth?

It is waxing until it reaches Full Moon and then it wanes again.
