noi it isnt it does not give off light.
By radiation. The moon radiates electromagnetic energy, as does just about anything warmer than absolute zero.
The moon has an extremely weak electromagnetic field, so solar wind does not get caught in it like it does in Earth's. Even if the moon did have a substantial electromagnetic field, it has no atmosphere for the solar wind to react with to produce auroras.
Because unlike Earth, the moon lacks an atmosphere. It also lacks an electromagnetic shield. Because of this any atmosphere on the moon would over time be blown away by solar winds. This doesn't happen to earth because our electromagnetic field generally protects us from solar winds.
Because the moon is satelite. The sun (or any stars) don't orbit the earth. The moon does. A star is a body that involves a Nuclear reaction that emits heat, light, and multiple forms of other Electromagnetic Radiation. Planets and Moons do not have such reactions and therefore only reflect light from other bodies.
Yes. Otherwise Astronauts would NOT be able to hear Mission Control on Earth (earphones / headphones rely on magnets to create sound waves). And yes, magnets work in a vacuum. Light is an Electromagnetic Wave and it travels through space.
The hearing aids which transmit and detect electromagnetic waves as electromagnetic wave can propagate on the moon.

Through the electromagnetic spectrum, specifically radio waves.
When electromagnetic waves hit an object, they can be absorbed, transmitted, reflected, or scattered. The interaction between the waves and the object will depend on the material properties of the object and the frequency of the electromagnetic waves.

Yes, electromagnetic waves can travel through a vacuum. This is because they do not require a medium to propagate, unlike mechanical waves. This property allows electromagnetic waves, such as light from the sun, to travel through the vacuum of space.
Electromagnetic waves: sunlight, microwave oven radiation. Electromagnetic spectrum: visible light, infrared radiation. Transparent: glass, clear plastic. Opaque: metal, wood. Shadow: created when an object blocks light from a source. Umbra: the darkest part of a shadow. Penumbra: the lighter part of a shadow around the umbra. Solar eclipse: occurs when the moon passes between the sun and Earth, casting a shadow on Earth. Lunar eclipse: occurs when Earth passes between the sun and the moon, casting a shadow on the moon.
Moonlight is almost entirely reflected sunlight, with very small amounts of reflected starlight and earthlight as well. As such, it radiates at the same continuous spectrum as the sun, though it won't have the bright emission lines that the sun emits.
Because unlike Earth, the moon lacks an atmosphere. It also lacks an electromagnetic shield. Because of this any atmosphere on the moon would over time be blown away by solar winds. This doesn't happen to earth because our electromagnetic field generally protects us from solar winds.
Yes if the moon fell on earth it would definetly produce a noticable magnetic field.
It depends what you are talking about... Electromagnetic field Electromagnetic force Electromagnetic radiation Electromagnetic spectrum Electromagnetic therapy Electromagnetic waves ...they each have different meanings.
By their gravitational forces and; 3) by their electromagnetic radiation. The Sun affects the Earth by its gravity which keeps the Earth in its orbit, and as I discussed in the section under Moon-Tides, by raising tides in the rocky and watery components of the Earth.
