When do solar eclipse appear?
A solar eclipse occurs when the moon passes between the Sun and the earth. The moon covers most of the sun as viewed from earth. Solar eclipse can only appear when the there is a new moon.
What face of the moon shows when the moon and sun appear at the same time?
When the moon and sun appear at the same time in the sky, typically during the day, the side of the moon that is illuminated and visible from Earth is the side that faces away from the sun. This phase is known as the new moon phase, where the moon is positioned between the Earth and the sun, making it difficult to see against the brightness of the sun. Thus, the illuminated face of the moon is not visible from Earth, and it appears dark.
How are the sun moon and Earth are positioned relative to each other during a new moon and how this alignment changes to produce a full moon?
During the new moon the Moon is between the Earth an the Sun. Hence only the side that cannot be seen from Earth is illuminated, making the moon appear dark. During the full moon the Earth is between the Sun and the Moon so sunlight falls on the side of the moon facing the Earth, making it appear bright.
When the moon is aligned with and betwween earth and the sun which phase is happening?
A new moon phase is happening when the moon is aligned between the Earth and the Sun. During this phase, the side of the moon that is illuminated by the Sun is facing away from Earth, making the moon appear dark or invisible from our perspective.
Why does the moon depend on the sun to shine?
The moon does not produce its own light; it reflects sunlight to shine. The sun's light illuminates the moon, making it visible to us on Earth. Without the sun's light, the moon would appear dark and invisible.
Why can the Moon appear as large as the Sun even though you know the Moon is much smaller than the Sun?
The Moon is much closer to Earth than the Sun is, therefore making the moon appear to be as large or larger than the sun when viewed from Earth.
Why does it appear like the sun and moon are following you?
because the moon and sun are so far they appear to be moving.
How does the moon appear to an observer on earth during a full moon?
Full, large or whole. Maybe the question was meant to be...How would the Earth appear to an observer on the moon during a full moon?
Why does the moon or sun move with you when you travel on earth's surface?
It doesn't. But there is an illusion that it does, because normally when you travel, you leave the scenery behind, and the Sun and Moon don't appear to have moved (much). But the Sun and Moon are so incredibly distant and large that YOUR movement is tiny in comparison.
Why doe the moon appear lit at night?
The moon is in front of the sun at night, and the moon reflects the sun's light.
Why does the moon appear to change as it revolves around the earth?
it has to do with the sun and the position of the moon , sun and earth
Relative to the earth and the sun where must the moon be to appear to be a crescent?
When the angle between the sun and moon as seen from earth is less than 90 degrees, the moon will appear as a crescent.
Does the new moon appear small or large?
The "new moon" is technically not visible at all. The Moon is directly between the Earth and the Sun and none of the illuminated part is visible from Earth. Sometime on the day of the new moon, the Moon will appear as a very thin crescent (last crescent or first crescent).
Is the sun and the moon the same size why do they appear to be the same size?
They appear to be the same size, as the sun is a very long distance away. The sun is many times larger than the moon.
Why can the moon appear as large as the sun even though you know the moon much smaller than the sun?
For the same reason you can cover either of them with your hand, even though it's much smaller than either.The Moon is much smaller than the Sun, but it's also much closer than the Sun.
What is the realation between earth and sun during a full moon?
During a full moon, the Earth is positioned between the Sun and the Moon. The Sun is illuminating the side of the Moon that faces Earth, making it appear fully lit from our perspective. This alignment causes the Moon to appear bright and full in the night sky.
Does the moon appear the brightest when it is closest to the sun?
No. In fact, when the moon is closest to the sun each month, we can't see it at all.
