Because the Earth<span> is a sphere, the surface gets much more intense </span>sunlight<span>, hence heat, at </span>the equator<span>than at the poles.</span>
The phases of the moon are the changing appearances of the moon, as seen from Earth. Which phase happens immediately after a third quarter moon are the following
Explanation:
- After the full moon (maximum illumination), the light continually decreases. So the waning gibbous phase occurs next. Following the third quarter is the waning crescent, which wanes until the light is completely gone -- a new moon.
waning gibbous phase
- The waning gibbous phase occurs between the full moon and third quarter phases. The last quarter moon (or a half moon) is when half of the lit portion of the Moon is visible after the waning gibbous phase.
Time takes by the moon to go through all the phases
about 29.5 days
- It takes 27 days, 7 hours, and 43 minutes for our Moon to complete one full orbit around Earth. This is called the sidereal month, and is measured by our Moon's position relative to distant “fixed” stars. However, it takes our Moon about 29.5 days to complete one cycle of phases (from new Moon to new Moon).
- At 3rd quarter, the moon rises at midnight and sets at noon. Then we see only a crescent. At new, the moon rises at sunrise and sets at sunset, and we don't see any of the illuminated side!
Answer:

Explanation:
Mass of the Sun, 
The radius of the Sun, 
We need to find the acceleration due to gravity on the surface of the Sun. It is given by the formula as follows :

So, the value of acceleration due to gravity on the Sun is
.
Mechanical waves transfer energy by inducing vibrations in the propagation medium.
The correct answer is letter D. Anemometer. It is a device that is used to measure wind speed. It is a very common weather station instrument and is available to use and to make. Anemos, from the greek word that means wind.
