Which word describes a change in the moons appearance?
The word you are looking for is "phase," which describes the different shapes the Moon appears to take when observed from Earth. These phases are a result of how sunlight is reflecting off the Moon's surface as it orbits Earth.
How many times does the moon orbit the sun while the earth completes one orbit of the sun?
One. The reason is that the moon orbits the earth, very close by. The earth describes a huge circle around the sun, while at the same time the moon describes about 13 tiny circles around the earth. All in all, it makes the same number of solar orbits as does the earth.
How is a planet different from a moon?
A Planet revolves around a central star (our Sun in the case of our Solar System). A Moon revolves around a planet.
What following terms refers to an object that orbits the sun and has enough gravity to be spherical but has not cleared the area of its orbit?
The term that refers to an object that orbits the sun, has enough gravity to be spherical, but has not cleared the area of its orbit is "dwarf planet." Dwarf planets, like Pluto, meet the criteria of being round due to their self-gravity but share their orbital zone with other objects of similar size. Unlike full-fledged planets, they do not dominate their orbits.
Which of these terms refers to the ring of celestial objects that orbits the Sun between Mars and Jupiter?
The term you are looking for is "asteroid belt." It is a region in the solar system that is mostly located between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter and is home to numerous small celestial objects called asteroids.
What best describes the different orbits that electrons can occupy?
energy levels
What statement correctly describes gravity?
Gravity is the force of attraction between two objects with mass. It causes objects to be drawn towards each other, and is responsible for phenomena such as the Earth's gravitational pull on objects and the orbits of planets around the sun.
What objects does earth orbit?
The Earth Orbits the sun
What is a objects that orbit Earth?
What is an object that orbits Earth
Which best describes the rotational motion of Uranus as it orbits the sun?
As Uranus orbits the sun, it rolls like a ball
What is the actual shape of an orbit?
Orbits (of astronomical objects around other objects) are basically ellipses.
What objects hang out in between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter?
asteroids
Which object's gravity holds the planets in their orbits?
The sun's gravity holds the planets in their orbits. It also holds other space objects in their orbits, such as asteroids.
What describes a satellite which orbits a planet revolving around the sun?
A satellite is an object which orbits a larger body. For example, the Moon orbits the Earth, and the Earth orbits the Sun. The Moon is a satellite of the Earth and the Earth is a Satellite of the Sun.
Which word describes a change in the moons appearance?
The word you are looking for is "phase," which describes the different shapes the Moon appears to take when observed from Earth. These phases are a result of how sunlight is reflecting off the Moon's surface as it orbits Earth.
I am one of the four large objects that orbits Jupiter?
Galilean moon
Does Eris orbit any objects?
Yes. Eris orbits the sun.
