Answer:

1.- b. when the Moon is at right angles to the direction of the Sun.

2.-b. when the Moon is directly opposite the position of the Sun.

3.-b. when the Moon is closer to the Sun than the Earth is.

Explanation:

The First Quarter Moon is when we can see exactly half of the Moon's surface illuminated. If it is the left or right half, it depends on where you are on Earth. If we observe the diagram I added we can see than the moon is at right angles to the direction of the Sun when it's in this phase.
Full Moon happens when the Moon is on the opposite side of the Earth from the Sun, this makes the bright side of the Moon face the Earth. This is also observable in the diagram.
The New Moon always occurs when the Moon is between the Earth and the Sun, therefore it's closer to the Sun than the Earth, the bright side of the Moon is facing away from the Earth. You can check this in the diagram as well.

I hope you find this information useful and interesting! Good luck!

If a white dwarf or neutron star were to gain mass, it would _____.

Vanyuwa [196]

cA. grow larger

The mass of the star actually determines the stage of the star after supernova. If the mass of the star is small, then it would become a very small and dwarf, cold and dead body in space. The mass of the star has to be less than that of the sun. If the mass of the star is greater than sun, then it would become a black hole. The mass of the star has to be more than 1.4 times the mass of the sun to become a black hole.


Nebula is the cloud of interstellar dust and gas that forms a star. It is collborately shaped during colliding and collapsing of the interstellar mediums this is influenced by the gravitational attraction of the atoms and particles in the entites. Hence, there are three types of nebular namely, are classical nebula, diffuse nebula, planetary nebular and supernova remnants.
