Question

How can
you say that moon
changes its shape
?​

Answer 1

Answer:

The Moon appears to change shape because we see different amounts of the lit part as the Moon orbits Earth. When the Moon is between Earth and the Sun, the lit side is hidden from us. As it moves around Earth, more and more of the lit side comes into view. Then it begins to disappear again.

It takes 29.5 days for the Moon to orbit Earth.

OK, OK, here’s why the Moon changes shape. there’s the Moon, it looks like it's hanging up there in the sky, but in fact, it’s travelling around the Earth. Not only that, but the Earth is spinning too. Getting confused? No? Phew! OK then, on a clear night the amount of Moon that you can see is dependent upon two things: where it is on its LUNAR CYCLE (takes about a month … or “moon-th”!) and where the Sun is in relation to the Moon. You see, if the face of the Moon you can see is also facing the Sun (even though it’s night time to us), then it’s fully lit by the Sun’s light. That’s a FULL MOON.

To us, the Sun may have set, but remember, its light is still streaming out in all directions and any that falls on the Moon may be reflected in your eyes. Now, as the Moon undertakes its lunar cycle, different faces of the Moon are lit by the Sun and, depending on where you are, you may be able to see all of the lit side (Full Moon) or only part of the lit side (Crescent moon/Gibbous Moon, etc.). Golly, complicated! Well, some pictures really help to understand this. So, let’s have a look at the different shapes (or phases) of the Moon:
