During a solar eclipse?
a.


In a solar eclipse, the moon's shadow is cast on the Earth. Since the Moon as rather smaller than the Earth, it's shadow only falls on a small area of the Earth, so if you witness a solar eclipse, you are very lucky.





b) describes a Lunar Eclipse. Since the Earth is bigger than the moon, the shadow can fall over the entire visible surface of the moon. When it happens, the eclipse is visible from the entire night half of the earth, so this form of eclipse is seen more often.





d) would be most unfortunate. In fact, the sun wouldn't even fit into the gap between the Earth and Moon!

It is when the moon moves between the sun and the earth and so the moon blocks out the light of the sun therefore casting it's shadow onto earth.

INTERESTING/USELESS FACT: the moon is currently in exactly the right place to mask out the entire sun, however the moon is very slowly moving away from the earth (meters a year) so there will come a time when the moon will a appear too small and the sun will not be totally masked out.
Reply:f) the moon moves between the the earth and the sun.
Reply:a) the moon's shadow is cast on the earth.





The moon moves between earth and sun and it so happens that the shadow cast just reaches the earths surface so that the moon appears to just cover the sun.

Can't you even reason out the answers for yourself anymore??





If you don't LEARN to do YOUR OWN homework, you will be a loser when it comes to college and holding down a high-paying job. Don't you care about your own work ethic anymore?





Sad and pathetic.
