The Earth would appear to go through the same phases that we see in the Moon, except that the Earth would appear to be almost stationary in the sky; it would wiggle a little.

What is the movement of the earth in a month?

The movement of the Earth in a month is actually a small portion of its orbit around the sun. One month on Earth is 1/12 of the Earth's orbit around the sun.


Does earth orbit causes change in the tides?

Yes, the Earth's orbit around the sun, as well as the moon's orbit around the Earth, influence the gravitational forces that cause the tides. Tides change in intensity and height throughout the month based on the positions of the Earth, moon, and sun.


What month is the hottest month in Peru?

The sun does not change temperatures in a pattern. It might change a little, but it does not change due to a certain month. You may be confused with the temperature here, and the Sun does give us the temperature, but the change in our temperature is due to the tilt on Earth's axis. Also, it depends on how far the Earth is from the Sun. Those two factors together affect the temperature of Earth.


What is the movements of Earth and the Moon over the course of a month?

Over the course of a month, Earth rotates on its axis approximately 30 times and orbits around the Sun once. Meanwhile, the Moon orbits around Earth approximately 12-13 times, causing its phases to change from new moon to full moon and back.


What determines a planet's length of a month?

The concept of a "month" doesn't really apply to any planet except the Earth. On Earth the month is closely connected to the Phases of our Moon. A month is not like a "day" or a "year" which depend on times of rotation and revolution of a planet.

How the appearance of the earth would change if you watched it from the near side of the moon for the month?

You would see the Earth go through 'phases'. You could also watch it rotate. However, it would not rise or set, but remain at pretty much the same position the entire time.


The change of the constellations' appearance in the sky from month to month is due to?

This is due to Earth traveling around the Sun... it takes a year for this to happen. Which is why you see the same constellations in the sky the same time every year.


What is the best TV show on the History Channel?

"The Best" is subjective, the only way to judge would be which show is the most watched & those numbers change week to week, month to month, season to season.As of this week ending 01|27|2013, Pawn Stars is the most watched History Channel program, in fact it was the most watched cable program as well.


Why does the Moon's appearance chages though a month?

As the moon circles the Earth, the shape of the moon appears to change; this is because different amounts of the illuminated part of the moon are facing us. The shape varies from a full moon (when the Earth is between the sun and the moon) to a new moon (when the moon is between the sun and the Earth).

Why does the height of tides change during the course of a month?

Because of the changes in the postion of the moon, earth and sun.


Why do the the times of moonrise and moonset change during the month?

The times of moonrise and moonset change during the month because the Moon orbits the Earth, which causes its position relative to the Earth and Sun to shift. This changing position results in variations in the timing of when the Moon rises and sets each day.


What causes the moon to change its appearance each month?

The moon's changing appearance, or phases, is caused by its orbit around Earth and the relative positions of the Earth, moon, and sun. As the moon moves in its orbit, different portions of its illuminated side become visible from Earth. This cycle results in the distinct phases: new moon, waxing crescent, first quarter, waxing gibbous, full moon, waning gibbous, last quarter, and waning crescent, repeating approximately every 29.5 days.


Why does the temperature change from month to month?

Temperature changes from month to month due to variations in the angle of sunlight, Earth's tilt, and distance from the sun. These factors affect the amount of heat and light received at different times of the year, leading to the fluctuation in temperatures.


Can you explain why the moon's appearance changes each night?

The moon's appearance changes each night because of its orbit around the Earth. As the moon moves, the amount of sunlight that reflects off its surface changes, causing different portions of the moon to be visible from Earth. This creates the different phases of the moon that we see throughout the month.
