Is the moon an illuminated object?
The Moon is illuminated by the Sun. At full moon, we see the bright part - the illuminated part. At new moon, we see mostly the dark part. (This part is also slightly visible, due to light reflected from the Earth.)
What is the difference between luminous object and illumines the object?
Luminous objects give off light whereas illuminated objects relfect light, and thus appear to produce light. For example: A lightbulb is luminous because it gives off light whereas the moon is illuminated because it reflects the light of the sun.A luminous object shines with its own light; it produces its own light, like the sun. An illuminated object is lit by some outside source, like a light bulb or something lit up because your car's headlights fall on it at night, such as your garage door.
Is the moon a luminous object or do you see it because it is illuminated?
The moon is not a luminous object; it does not generate its own light. The moon is visible to us on Earth because it reflects sunlight. The amount of light reflected depends on the moon's position in its orbit.
Why is the moon illuminated?
The moon is illuminated because it reflects light from the Sun. This phenomenon is visible to us on Earth depending on the position of the moon in relation to the Sun and the Earth. Different phases of the moon result from how much of the illuminated side we can see from Earth.
What percentage of the moon is always illuminated by the sun?
