Earth Sun Moon Positions Practice Test

Two models show the Earth–Moon–Sun system (top-down view over Earth’s North Pole). The diagrams are NOT to scale.

In both models, the Sun is to the left and sunlight arrows point to the right.

Model 1 shows the Moon on the right side of Earth.

Model 2 shows the Moon on the left side of Earth.

Which claim is supported by BOTH models?

Two students drew models (top-down view over Earth’s North Pole). The diagrams are NOT to scale.

Both show the Sun to the right of Earth.

Model 1 shows sunlight arrows pointing leftward (from the Sun toward Earth).

Model 2 shows sunlight arrows pointing rightward (toward the Sun).

Which model is NOT physically possible because it shows sunlight traveling in the wrong direction?
