Question

Describe how the solar eclipse occurs (Class 5).​

Answer 1

Explanation:

A solar eclipse occurs when a portion of the Earth is engulfed in a shadow cast by the Moon which fully or partially blocks sunlight.

Answer 2

Answer:

Also known as the eclipse of the sun, it occurs when the moon comes in between the sun and the earth. As a result, the moon blocks the light of the sun from reaching the earth's surface and casts a shadow on it. This occurs on a new moon phase. We can observe up to 5 solar eclipses per year.
