What time does the full moon rise and set?
it rises at sunset and sets at sunrise
Where does the moon rise and where does it set?
The moon rises in the east and sets in the west.
Does the moon rise and set every day?
Yes, unless you happen to be in the Polar Regions where there are days where the moon never rises/sets. The moon rises at a different time each day due to it's constant orbit around our planet.
When does the moon set in the west at dawn?
because the sun rises in the east
How does the moon rise and set?
It actually doesn't. It is an optical illusion. It happens because when it is lower down, there are more things to compare it to along the horizon. When it is higher up, it is out on its own so it looks smaller.
What time does a new moon set?

The moon rises and sets just like the sun, but unlike the sun moonrise and moonset can occur an any time of the day throughout the 29 day lunar month.
The sun is ahead of the moon in the sky during waxing phases what time would a 10 old moon set if the sun set at 7pm?
The Moon sets about 50 minutes later each day. At the "new moon", the Moon and Sun are very close together in the sky, and rise and set together. 10 days later, the Moon rises (and sets) about 8 hours after the Sun does. So the Moon 10 days after the new would be waxing gibbous, and would set around 3 AM.
Why does a third quarter moon set at noon?
It sets only approximately at noon, the actual time can vary a couple of hours each way. But the third-quarter moon is 90 degrees ahead of the sun (i.e. to the right when viewed from the northern hemisphere) as measured along the ecliptic. Therefore it must set a few hours before the sun. In the same way the first-quarter moon rises during the day and the full moon rises at sunset.
Why is the moon setting at 830 pm over Albany ny when it should be rising?
The moon only rises in the evening during the full moon phase, when it is on the opposite side of the Earth as the sun. When the moon is close to new, it will set at the same time as the sun because it is in the same direction as the sun.
Where does the moon rise an set?
The moon rises in the east and sets in the west just like the sun. It rises northeast and sets northwest whenever the moon's apparent zenith position is north of the Equator and likewise it rises southeast and sets southwest whenever the moon's apparent zenith position is south of the Equator. The moon changes it's declination once every lunar month as it orbits the Earth.
