Students have asked these similar questions
the earth is positioned between the sun and the moon in a nearly straight line. The position results in
A. Solar eclipse
b. lunar eclipse
c. new moon
d. annular eclipse
Each year, the radius of the moon’s orbit increases by about 3.8 cm. How does this change affect the length of a month?A. A month gets longer.B. A month gets shorter.C. The length of a month stays the same.
H3.
A total lunar eclipse is observed on December 31. Predict the next lunar eclipse. A total lunar eclipse will occur when the full moon and the nominal orbit of the moon line up together (The solution of two equations). From the following data algebraic equation for the phase of the moon and nominal orbit of the moon can be formed. A new moon (0%) was observed on December 17 and the full moon (10%) was observed on December 31 along with the nominal orbit of the moon (0%). The brimming orbit of the moon (100%) was observed on November 29. When the two equations are equal a lunar eclipse will occur.
How many days from December 31 will next lunar eclipse occur? Given the coming year is a leap year - on what dates will the next 4 total lunar eclipses occur?
Show the algebraic solution, any information you use.
