When the sun earth and moon are in a straight line it is called?
It could be a lunar eclipse (when the earth is in between both the sun and the moon) or a solar eclipse (when the moon is in between both the earth and the sun).
What tide is caused by the straight alignment of the sun earth and moon?
Spring tide is caused by the straight alignment of the sun, Earth, and moon. This alignment results in greater gravitational forces exerted on the Earth's oceans, causing higher high tides and lower low tides.
What is caused by the straight alignment of the sun earth and moon?
Eclipses (solar and lunar) are caused by the straight alignment of the sun, moon and earth. Spring tide A+ Thank you for the Answer Luckiigurl16 spring tide:A tide with the Greatest different between high and low tide that occurs when the sun and the moon are aligned with Earth at the new moon and full moon.
What was caused by the straight alignment of the sun earth and moon?
The straight alignment of the Sun, Earth, and Moon causes a solar or lunar eclipse. During a solar eclipse, the Moon passes between the Sun and Earth, blocking the Sun's light, while a lunar eclipse occurs when the Earth is positioned between the Sun and the Moon, casting a shadow on the Moon. These phenomena happen only during specific phases of the lunar cycle and are a result of the celestial bodies being in a straight line.
What best describes how a new moon occurs?
A new moon occurs when the moon is positioned between the Earth and the sun, with the side of the moon facing Earth in darkness. This alignment causes the side of the moon illuminated by the sun to be hidden from view, resulting in a dark night sky with no visible moon.

What is the alignment of the earth sun and moon during a lunar eclipse?
The three bodies are arranged in a straight line and in the same plane, with the earth in the middle. Sun ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------> Earth --> Moon

When does earth have an eclipse?
When the Sun, Earth and Moon line up exactly, an eclipse occurs. If the alignment is sun, Moon, Earth, then it is a solar eclipse. If the alignment is Sun, Earth, Moon, then we have a lunar eclipse.
WHEN THE MOON AND SUN ARE ALIGNED THE PRODUCE?
Of course, you can always draw a straight line from Moon to Sun, so really, to be interesting, the alignment would involve Earth, Sun, and the Moon. If they are in a straight line, there will sometimes be solar eclipses, or lunar eclipses.
Why do you need a full moon for a lunar eclipse?
A lunar eclipse occurs when the Earth passes between the Sun and the Moon, casting a shadow on the Moon. A full moon is required for this alignment to happen because this is when the Sun, Earth, and Moon are in a straight line with Earth in the middle.
When the entire side of the moon facing the earth is bathed in the sunlight the moon is?
In alignment with the earth and sun.
What best describes how a new moon occurs?
A new moon occurs when the moon is positioned between the Earth and the sun, with the side of the moon facing Earth in darkness. This alignment causes the side of the moon illuminated by the sun to be hidden from view, resulting in a dark night sky with no visible moon.
When the sun the moon and earth are in a straight line would an eclipse of the sun occur?
Yes, a solar eclipse is when the moon passes in front of the earth (between the earth and sun) blocking sunlight. A lunar eclipse is when the earth is in between the sun and moon, and prevents the moon from reflecting sunlight and "shining"
How does a straight alignment between Earth the sun and the moon impact the tides on earth?
It causes especially strong tides (high high and low lows) called "spring" tides. Nothing to do with the season; they "spring" up. When the Moon and Sun are at right angles, we have "neap" tides (low highs and high lows).
