does the moon, like the earth, revolve around the sun?

Question

thanks for those hu will answer

Answer 1

the moon is orbiting the earth, the earth orbits the sun so that means the moon is orbiting the sun as well otherwise we would leave it behind in space.

Answer 2

The moon revolves around the earth, which in turn revolves around the sun. If the sun disappeared, the earth would stop circling it, but the moon would still be moving because it circles Earth, not the sun.
We get eclipses when the moon is in between the sun and the earth. That is caused by the moon revolving around EARTH, not by the moon revolving around the sun.

Answer 3

Technically speaking,No.If a smaller object were to revolve around the bigger one, the revolution shoud be on its own effort based on mutual attraction.This is not so in this case.The moon is carried by the earth around the sun and if suddenly the earth stops its revolution around the sun, the moon will be circling around the earth only as the force of attraction between the moon and the earth is more than that of the sun and the moon.

Answer 4

When mass revolve as into an orbit it must be relative to another mass. Usually the larger mass moves slower relative to a barry center and the smaller mass moves faster in a larger orbit relative to the common barry center.
The motion of the Moon folows two type of trajectories in the Sun -Earth -Moon relationship.These are as follows;
Earth -Moon relativity= The Moon follows and eliptical shaped orbit relative to the Earth.
Earth - Sun relativity= The earth follows an elliptical orbit relative to the Sun.

Sun- Moon relativity = The trajectory of the moon relative to the sun follows a cycloidal oscilliatory motion superimposed on an elliptical orbit of the Earth.

So the Moon is considedered to revolve around the Sun in aprox 13 oscilliatory cycles which we call months.

Answer 5

Actually, both the moon and the earth revolve around a common center, like two dancers spinning around each other while going around a ballroom. This common center follows an elliptical orbit around the sun.

In short, the answer is yes: The earth and the moon together revolve around the sun.

Answer 6

No. The moon revolves around a certain point called the barycenter, (not the center), of the earth. The earth revolves around the sun. When the earth is between the sun and moon, we see a full moon, and when the moon is between the sun and the earth, there is a new moon.

Answer 7

the moon revolves around the earth, and the earth revolves around the sun. So ur answer could be both ways. It could be no because it doesnt technically revolve around the sun. But it could be yes because it revolves around a body that revolves around the sun.

Answer 8

If the moon revolves around the earth every 28 days and the earth around the sun every 365 days and 6 hr. What u think???

Answer 9

indirectly. the moon is our earth's satellite, which means it revolves around the earth. and as the earth revolves around the sun, then the moon, in a way, also moves around the sun.

Answer 10

Yes. The center of gravity of the Earth-moon system (its barycenter) traces a (nearly) perfect ellipse around the sun, while the Earth and moon each follow paths that weave slightly in and out around that ellipse. The difference is that the Earth weaves much less than the moon, because the barycenter is located within our planet.

Answer 11

Well, yes, indirectly, making about 12 little loops as it does so once in a year. But it's more accurate to say that the moon revolves around Earth, and is carried along with Earth as Earth revolves around the sun.
