Answer:

I think circular motion!

Step-by-step explanation:

The nearly circular motion of the moon orbiting the earth causes the change in angle relative to the sun. When the moon is between the earth and the sun in almost straight line (earth-moon-sun angle is 180 degrees) then you see a new moon (or don't see anything if it is perfectly straight). HOPE THIS HELPS!!!!
