Transcription of THE MOON - HMXEarthScience
1 THE diagram below shows the relative positions of the Earth, Moon, and Sun for a diagram best represents the appearance of the Moon at position P when viewed fromthe Earth? diagram below represents the Moon in its orbit, as viewed from above Earth's NorthPole. Position 1 represents a specific location of the Moon in its phase of the Moon will be seen from Earth when the Moon is at position 1?Base your answers to questions 3 through 6 on the diagram below, which represents a model ofthe Earth-Moon system as viewed from above the North Pole.
2 The numbers 1 through 8 representpositions of the Moon as it revolves around Earth. The parts of the diagram lettered A through Dshow how the Moon's phases appear to an observer in New moonBnew moonCfirst quarterDlast Moon phase appears highest in the sky at midnight to an observer on Earth? time required for the Moon to complete one cycle of phases is about oneArotation of EarthBrevolution of EarthCrotation of the MoonDrevolution of the motion causes the Moon to show phases when viewed from Earth?Adecrease, onlyBincrease, onlyCdecrease, then increaseDincrease, then the Moon's phase changes from first quarter to last quarter, the visible portion of theMoon as observed from Earth willBase your answers to questions 7 through 10 on the chart below, which shows phases of theMoon as viewed by an observer on Earth during 103 105 103 1022 is the approximate diameter of the Moon?
3 AThe Moon rotates on its s orbit is nearly Sun lights only half of Moon revolves around does the Moon show these phases when viewed by an observer on Earth?A14 daysB23 daysC29 daysD365 Moon goes through a complete cycle of phases approximately 1996, the maximum intensity of moon-light was received on Earth twice in themonth diagram below shows the Moon as it revolves around Earth. The numbered locationsrepresent different positions of the Moon in its Moon phase would be seen by an observer in New York State when the Moon is atposition 2?
4 Base your answers to questions 12 through 15 on the calendar below, which shows the month ofJuly of a recent year. The dates of major Moon phases , as seen in New York State, are diagram below represents the phase of the Moon observed from New York State one nightduring the month of Sun is composed mostly of Sun s gravity influences more Moon has a greater Moon is much closer to does the Moon s gravity have a greater effect on Earth s ocean tides than the Sun sgravity?AJuly 4 BJuly 11 CJuly 19 DJuly which date was this phase of the Moon visible from New York State?
5 AAugust 6 BAugust 10 CAugust 16 DAugust which date will the next first-quarter Moon phase occur?Arate of rotation is 15 each hourBorbit is inclined to Earth s orbitCperiod of revolution is daysDperiod of rotation and period of revolution are the do not occur every month because the Moon sAthe SunBVenusCthe object is closest to Earth? diagram sequence correctly shows the order of Moon phases , as viewed from Earth,for a period of 1 month? [Note that some phases have been omitted.]Base your answers to questions 18 through 21 on the diagram below, which shows the Moon atposition 1 in its orbit around Earth.
6 Numbers 2 through 8 represent other positions in the Moon' the diagram below, shade the portion of the Moon that is in darkness as viewed fromNew York State when the Moon is at position many days does it take the Moon to go from one full-Moon phase to the nextfull-Moon phase when viewed from Earth? solar eclipse could occur when the Moon is located at which numbered position? one numbered orbital position where the gravitational attraction of the Moon andthe Sun cause Earth to experience the highest high Moon rotates on its axis at the same rate that it revolves around Moon exerts a gravitational pull on a rotating 's rotation causes a deflection of surface ocean 's tilted axis causes different amounts of insolation throughout the photographs below show the same coastal location at two different times during thesame statement best explains the cause for the higher water
7 Level at 6:52 your answers to questions 23 and 24 on the diagram below, which has lettered arrowsshowing the motions of Earth and the and BBB and CCC and DDA and two motions are completed in about the same amount of time? lettered arrow represents the motion that causes the Moon to show phases whenview from EarthBase your answers to questions 25 through 28 on the diagram below, which represents the Moonorbiting Earth as viewed from space above the North Pole. The Moon is shown at eight differentpositions in its of EarthBrotation of the SunCrevolution of EarthDrevolution of the motion causes the Moon to show phases when viewed from Earth?

The Moon is shown at eight positions in its ocean tides occur when the difference in height between high tide and low tide isgreatest. At which two positions of the Moon will spring tides occur on Earth?AThe size of the Earth's shadow falling on the Moon Moon moves into different parts of the Earth's amounts of the Moon's sunlit surface are seen because the Moon revolvesaround the amounts of the Moon's sunlit surface are seen because the Moon revolvesaround the statement best explains why different phases of the Moon can be observed from theEarth?
10 Diagram best represents the size of the Moon, compared to Earth, when drawn toscale?Base your answers to questions 34 through 36 on the diagram below, which shows positions of the Moon in its orbit and phases of the Moon asviewed from New York Moon does not rotate as it revolves around Moon s period of rotation equals Earth s period of Moon s period of rotation equals Earth s period of revolution around the Moon s period of rotation equals the Moon s period of revolution around statement best explains why the same side of the Moon is viewed from Earth as theMoon goes through its phases ?
