Note how the rays define the darkest part of the shadow, the umbra, and the lghter part of the shadow, the penumbra The shadows that comprise eclipses of planetary bodies are similarty formed. Below lis a diagram of the Sun Earth, and the orbital path of the Moon (dashed cirdle). One position of the Moon is shown Draw the Moon in the appropriate posidons on the dashed cirde to represont (a) a quane oon: (b) a-hal Moone (c) a solar eclipse; (d) a lunar edlipse. Label your positions. For c and o, extend rays from the top and bottom of the Sun to show umbra and penumbra regions Wttmin Eartn The díagram below is an extension of Figure 33.21, which shows 3 positions of the Sun. A, B,C. Sketch the appropriate positons of the Moon in its orbit about the Earth for (a) a solar ecipse: (b) a lunar edlipse. Label your positions. Sketch solar rays similar to the above exerdise.
