Question

Refer to the model below. A science student is camping with her family for one month at Stone Mountain Park. In a journal she records a model of the moon phases she observes. If she began recording the moon phases at position X, which sequence of Moon phase models could be seen by her during the 4-week period?

Answer 1

New Moon - Crescent Moom ---- Full Moon ---- Waning Quarter

Step-by-step explanation:

The Moon revolves around the Earth in a 28 day period, which is approximately one Earth month, therefore S the student has been recording the movement of the Moon for 4 Earth weeks this is a period of complete revolution of the Moon .

Consequently you must register the following phases

New Moon - Crescent Moom ---- Full Moon ---- Waning Quarter

in the period where it begins, it must go through the cycle in an orderly way to the right.
