It is the Earth, which is bigger between the moon & the earth.
The moon is about 1/4th the size of the Earth.
a solar eclipse. This occurs when the Moon blocks the Sun's light from reaching the Earth. It can result in either a total or partial solar eclipse, depending on the alignment of the three celestial bodies.
No. In a lunar eclipse Earth is between the sun and the moon, thus casting a shadow on the moon. When the moon passes between Earth and the sun it is a solar eclipse, to an observer on Earth, the moon eclipses the sun.
A lunar eclipse means the Earth is exactly between the Sun and the Moon, so the Earth's shadow falls onto the Moon. A new moon means the Moon is roughly between the Sun and the Earth, so you can't see the Moon that easily because the side that is lit by the Sun is pointing away from us. If during a new moon the Moon should become _exactly_ between the Earth and the Sun, some people on Earth (if standing in the right place) would see a big chunk cut out of the Sun where the Moon is blocking its light, causing a shadow to go on the Earth. The Moon might even completely block out the Sun's light for a few minutes. This is called a Solar Eclipse.
Mutual gravitational forces between the Earth and Moon are.
5.14 degrees.
The moon is about 1/4th the size of the Earth.
The Earth is much bigger than the moon.
Moon orbit Earth-- Satellite. It big. Very Big. Smaller Earth. Bigger Elephant.
Well if the moon moves a bit the earth and tide pulls with it and if the sun moon and earth are all in the same position as in a spring tide it causes the tides to go really big.
Gravity on the moon is only 1/6th of the gravity on Earth. You would bounce, take really big steps, etc.

When the Earth is between the Moon and the Sun you get a full moon, not a new Moon which occurs when the Moon is between the Earth and the Sun. You could also get a Lunar eclipse.
no.
No. The moon is about 1/4 the diameter of Earth.
