Question

5. The distance between Sun and Earth is 1.496 x 1011 m and the distance between Earth and Moon is 1492.16 x 108
During solar eclipse Moon comes in between Earth and Sun. At that time what is the distance between Moon and Sun​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The Sun's distance from Earth is about 400 times the Moon's distance, and the Sun's diameter is about 400 times the Moon's diameter. Because these ratios are approximately the same, the Sun and the Moon as seen from Earth appear to be approximately the same size: about 0.5 degree of arc in angular measure.
