Question
the moons orbit around earth
select all of the astronomical events this diagram helps show
earth rotates on its axis once every 24 hours
phases of the moon always occur in the same order
the lunar cycle repeats approximately every 29 days.
different phases of the moon can be seen from earth as the moon orbits earth
sunlight reflecting off of the moon causes the shape of the moon to appear to change
- The diagram shows the moon's orbit around Earth with days marked (1 - 29). It indicates the lunar cycle (approx 29 days).
- The sequence of moon phases (from new moon on day 1, waxing, full on day 14, waning) shows they occur in order.
- As the moon orbits (positions at different days), different phases (shapes as seen from Earth) are visible.
- Sunlight (shown in diagram) reflecting off the moon causes the phase (apparent shape) changes.
- There is no indication of Earth's 24 - hour rotation in the diagram.
