If the moon is in its new phase tonight what phase will it be in a week from tonight?
The moon will be in its first quarter phase a week from tonight after the new moon phase.
What do the different phases of the moon refer to?
The lunar phase is the shape of the illuminated portion of the moon that's visible from earth.The formal names of some of the phases also include a reference to what part of the lunar month that phase appears in. For example, when you see a "half moon" in the early evening, the official name for that phase is "First Quarter", because it occurs one week after the New Moon, out of a total cycle of four weeks.
What does the diagram of the phases of the moon illustrate?
Well, in the diagram of the phases of the mooon, what we are seeing is how the moon appears from Earth as it orbits around us. When the Moon is between the Earth and the Sun, we see a New Moon, meaning it's completely dark from our perspective. As the Moon moves in its orbit, we then see its illuminated side in various amounts, creating the different phases like First Quarter, Full Moon, and Last Quarter. So, that cute little diagram is like a dance of shadows and light between the Sun, the Earth, and our lovely Moon - showing us the beautiful cycle that goes on up there in the heavens.
Is the moon always dark on one side?
No. The Moon is orbiting the Earth, but is illuminated by the Sun. About half of the Moon's total surface is illuminated by the Sun at any one time. As the Moon orbits the Earth, the same side always faces the Earth. The phases of the Moon represent the part of that face that is lighted on that particular day. We cannot see the far side of the Moon, but it will have the remaining part of the illuminated one-half.
What do you call moon when almost full?
Because mathematically there are 4 quarters in any full cycle. The number 4 is just a convenient way of marking phases. There are actually 8 phases that are commemorated in popular culture. But the main 4 phases of the moon are named "Full, First Quarter, New Moon, and Third Quarter. Then its back to Full again... (the 8 phases that are commonly mentioned are New Crescent just after the New Moon; Old crescent just before the New Moon; Waning Gibbous just after Full Moon; and Waxing Gibbous just before Full Moon. We look at the moon we see only half of it so when only half of that is lit by the sun we are looking at one quarter.
Can Moon go from a quarter moon to half moon from day to night?
No. You may be getting hung up on the terminology; at the "first quarter moon" and "third quarter moon", one HALF of the visible face of the Moon is illuminated. There is no "half moon" phase. One half of the surface of the Moon is illuminated by the Sun at ALL times, except during a lunar eclipse; during a total lunar eclipse, none of the Moon's surface is in the sunlight. The rest of the time, half of the Moon is in sunlight, and the other half is in darkness. From our perspective on Earth, we see "phases" as the Moon goes around the Earth and we see it from different angles.
Why is the first quarter moon phase called that?
At "half Moon" we see half of the Moon's hemisphere that is facing Earth. But "half Moon" isn't what astronomers call that phase of the Moon. It is called a "quarter Moon" phase. That's because the Moon has completed one quarter (at First Quarter phase) or three quarters (at Third Quarter phase) of an orbit around the Earth since new Moon. (Another possible reason is that we see a quarter of the total surface of the Moon at these phases.)
If the moon is in its new phase tonight what phase will it be in a week from tonight?
The moon will be in its first quarter phase a week from tonight after the new moon phase.
What's is one quarter of earth surface?
One quarter of Earth's surface is approximately 25%. This represents one-fourth of the total land area on Earth.
What will happen to the total surface area of a cube if its each side is halved?
It will be a quarter of what it was.

What is A quarter of the world's surface?
A quarter of the world's surface refers to the land area of the Earth. This accounts for roughly 25% of the total area of the planet. The landmasses are distributed across different continents and countries.
Why the color of crumpled plastic white?
The color of crumpled plastic is white because it reflects light of all wavelengths in the visable range. Light is reflected from a reflective surface at approximately 2 precent of the total light shining on it. When there is a second reflective surface beneath it light is also reflected but if both photons are in the same phase then the square of the total from both surfaces is reflested back ie. 16 percent, if they are out of phase they cancel out and no light is reflected. So when several reflective surfaces are layerd most of the light is reflected. If it is illuminated by white light then white light will be reflected.
When was Total Phase created?
Total Phase was created in 2001.
