Question
source 1 \solar\ means relating to the sun. \eclipse\ means to block. a solar eclipse occurs when the moon blocks the path between the sun and earth. the sun is hidden from earth in that position. how does this happen? we know that the moon is much smaller than the sun, so how can the moon block our view of the sun? the moon is much closer to earth than the sun is. from our point of view on earth, the moon can look about the same size as the sun. source 2 an eclipse occurs when one object in space blocks the view of another object in space. from earth, there are two main types of eclipses: lunar and solar. a lunar eclipse occurs when earths shadow hides the moon. a solar eclipse occurs when the moon hides the sun, casting a shadow on part of earth. nico wants to take notes based on both sources. which two notes accurately combine information from both sources? 1. there are many kinds of eclipses in space and two types we can see from earth. 2. a lunar eclipse happens when earths shadow blocks sunlight from reaching the moon. 3. some people on earth can see the moon block the sun and its light during a solar eclipse. 4. solar eclipses occur when the view of the sun from a part of earth is blocked by the moon. 5. from earth, the moon can appear to be the same size as the sun, even though the sun is actually much larger.
- Source 1 focuses on solar - eclipse details like the moon blocking the Sun and its relative size and distance. Source 2 gives an overview of eclipses from Earth (lunar and solar) and their causes.
- Option 3 is correct as it aligns with the description of a solar - eclipse in both sources where the moon blocks the Sun for some Earth - observers.
- Option 5 is correct as it is mentioned in Source 1 that the moon can look the same size as the Sun from Earth despite the Sun being much larger.
