Question

A total solar eclipse occurs when the Moon moves between the Earth and the Sun and completely

blocks out the Sun. This phenomenon is very spectacular and attracts people from all cultures.

However, total solar eclipses can also take place on other planets of the Solar System.

Determine for each of the following moons if they can create a total solar eclipse on their planet.

Moon Radius Distance to Planet Planet Distance to the Sun

Phobos 11 km 9376 km Mars 228 × 106 km

Callisto 2410 km 1.883 × 106 km Jupiter 779 × 106 km

Titan 2574 km 1.222 × 106 km Saturn 1433 × 106 km

Oberon 761 km 0.584 × 106 km Uranus 2875 × 106 k. Note: The radius of the Sun is 696 × 103 km.​

Answer 1

Answer:

A solar eclipse occurs when the Moon moves between the Sun and Earth, casting its shadow on a part of Earth's surface. If the eclipse is total, the light from the bright disk of the Sun is completely blocked, and the solar atmosphere (the corona) comes into view.
