In studies of people taking RISPERDAL CONSTAÂ®, the most common side effects in the treatment of bipolar disorder were weight gain (when used alone) and slow movements (including with tremor [shaking], stiffness, and a shuffling walk) and tremor (when used with lithium or valproate).
correction, The moon has 4 main phases, new, quarter, full, and third quarter moon's. You may think using common sense that what the other answer was correct, but it was not â¦ . Since the sun only faces one side of the moon, only one side of the moon is lit up. That side faces the sun. On earth people see a new moon as a dark moon because the half that is lit faces the sun and away from the earth making a moonless sky. The Quarter moon is when the moon is at a 90 degree angle from the sun.
As the Sun sets, the Moon rises with the side that faces Earth fully exposed to sunlight (5).The Moon has phases because it orbits Earth, which causes the portion we see illuminated to change. The Moon takes 27.3 days to orbit Earth, but the lunar phase cycle (from new Moon to new Moon) is 29.5 days. The Moon spends the extra 2.2 days catching up because Earth travels about 45 million miles around the Sun during the time the Moon completes one orbit around Earth. At the new Moon phase, the Moon is so close to the Sun in the sky that none of the side facing Earth is illuminated (position 1 in illustration). In other words, the Moon is between Earth and Sun. At first quarter, the half-lit Moon is highest in the sky at sunset, then sets about six hours later (3).
