What is it called when some portions of a wave are at rest while other portions have a large amplitude?
This phenomenon is called standing wave. It occurs when two waves of the same frequency traveling in opposite directions interfere with each other, causing some points to appear stationary while others have large amplitudes.
Why are shadows not possible to see on the moon?
There can be two reasons why the Moon might be covered in shadow. * The most usual is that we are seeing the part of the Moon which is not lit by the Sun, or we are seeing parts of both the lit and unlit sides. * The other reason is that the Earth can occasionally move between the Moon and the Sun, casting its shadow onto the Moon. When this happens it is known as an eclipse of the Moon, or a lunar eclipse.

What is lunar energy?
Lunar energy refers to the energy and power associated with the moon. Some believe that the different phases of the moon can influence emotions, behaviors, and spiritual practices. Harnessing lunar energy can involve activities like moon gazing, rituals, or meditations during specific moon phases.
Why your images appear thin or bulged out in some mirrors?
When light reflects off a curved mirror, it can cause the image to appear distorted. A concave mirror can make the image appear thinner, while a convex mirror can make it appear bulged out. This distortion occurs due to how the curved surface bends the light rays, impacting the way the reflected image is formed.
Why is the moon yellow on some nights?
The moon is yellow on some nights because of the amount of smog in the air. Also, it might be because of thepositionof the moon to the Earth and sun.
Does the moon disappear on certain days?

Why do some clouds appear to be behind the moon?
Some clouds may appear to be behind the moon due to the relative positions of the clouds, the moon, and the observer. When clouds are at different altitudes in the atmosphere, lower clouds can appear to be behind the moon, especially when the moon is low on the horizon. Additionally, atmospheric perspective and the moon's brightness can create the illusion of depth, making it seem as if clouds are positioned behind the moon when they are actually further away.
How come you cannot see the moon some nights?
You may not be able to see the moon some nights because it could be in its new moon phase, where the side of the moon illuminated by the sun is facing away from Earth. Cloud cover, pollution, or the moon's position below the horizon can also obstruct visibility.
Does the moon disappear on some nights?
No, the moon does not disappear. It follows a predictable cycle of phases where it waxes and wanes, moving through new moon, first quarter, full moon, and last quarter phases. The moon is always in the sky, even if it may not be visible depending on its phase and position relative to Earth and the sun.
Why is it bright during a cloudy night?
Even on cloudy nights, some light from the moon and city lights can still filter through the clouds, causing the sky to appear brighter than if it were a completely overcast night. Additionally, the clouds themselves can reflect light back towards the ground, further contributing to the brightness.

Why does the moon appear to have dark patches on its surface?
The dark patches on the Moon are large plains which were formed by lava flows early in the Moon's history. In the past, the Moon was heavily bombarded by the material leftover from planet formation. Some of the objects which hit the Moon were very big and formed large impact basins. These basins were then flooded by the darker volcanic material from the Moon's interior. The lava flows covered any craters in their path, so these plains have very few craters compared to other places on the Moon. People once thought that these dark patches were seas on the Moon, so these regions were given the name "maria" which is the latin word for seas. The maria cover about seventeen percent of the Moon's surface and are found mainly on the side of the Moon facing Earth
