7 0

Answer:

Explanation:

Nuclear Fission -

The process of the splitting of atom , by radioactive decay process or by any collisional impact .

Sun contains many radioactive isotopes like , thorium , uranium , etc .

The nuclear fission process is an intrinsic property of the radioactive nuclides.

Nuclear Fusion -

The process , where two or more than two atomic nuclei combines to form one or more different atomic nuclei and subatomic particles .

The energy released in both the process is almost same ,

But on the surface of Sun , hydrogen is abundantly present , hence , hydrogen fusion is possible , so the dominant source of energy on the sun is Fusion .

Drupady [299]

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!
