1. The phase of the moon that is seen when the moon is located between Earth and the sun is the new moon phase.
2. When it is a first-quarter moon, the moon is located at a 90-degree angle from the Earth and the sun. It is positioned on the right side of the Earth if viewed from the northern hemisphere.
3. The main difference between a waxing crescent and a waning gibbous is the amount of visible illuminated moon. During a waxing crescent, a small crescent of the moon is visible on the right side, while during a waning gibbous, a large portion of the moon is visible on the left side.
4. A similarity between the first-quarter moon and the third-quarter moon is that both phases are half-illuminated, with one side of the moon being fully illuminated and the other side in darkness. The main difference is the orientation of the illuminated side, with the first-quarter moon's illuminated side on the right and the third-quarter moon's illuminated side on the left.
So the answers are?
1. New moon
2. Positioned at a 90-degree angle from Earth and the sun (on the right side if viewed from the northern hemisphere)
3. Waxing crescent - small crescent on the right side; Waning gibbous - large portion on the left side
4. Both are half-illuminated, with one side fully illuminated and the other in darkness. The orientation of the illuminated side differs, with the first-quarter moon's illuminated side on the right and the third-quarter moon's illuminated side on the left.
What is the 2nd 3rd and 4th one?
2. The moon is located at a 90-degree angle from Earth and the sun when it is a first-quarter moon. It is positioned on the right side if viewed from the northern hemisphere.
3. The difference between a waxing crescent and a waning gibbous is the amount of visible illuminated moon. During a waxing crescent, a small crescent of the moon is visible on the right side. On the other hand, during a waning gibbous, a large portion of the moon is visible on the left side.
4. A similarity between the first-quarter moon and the third-quarter moon is that both phases are half-illuminated. One side of the moon is completely illuminated, while the other side is in darkness. The distinction lies in the orientation of the illuminated side: the first-quarter moon's illuminated side is on the right, whereas the third-quarter moon's illuminated side is on the left.
The last one is?
The last one is: A similarity between the first-quarter moon and the third-quarter moon is that both phases are half-illuminated, with one side of the moon being fully illuminated and the other side in darkness.
