    Eclipse

    Uploaded by

    1) A solar eclipse occurs when the moon passes between the Earth and the sun, blocking the sunlight from reaching parts of the Earth. 2) Solar eclipses can only happen at the new moon phase, when the sun, moon, and Earth are aligned. 3) During a solar eclipse, the moon's umbra casts a shadow on Earth where a total solar eclipse can be seen, while the penumbra causes a partial solar eclipse.

    SOLAR AND

    LUNAR ECLIPSE
    After going through
    this module, you are
    expected to explain
    how solar and lunar
    eclipses occur using
    models. (S7ES-IVj-12)
    Specifically, you are also
    expected to:

    1. describe a solar and


    lunar eclipse;
    2. create a model
    showing a solar eclipse.
    Directions: Read the
    statements carefully,
    then choose the letter
    of the best answer.
    Write the chosen letter
    in your Science
    activity notebook.
    1. Which of the following best describes a
    solar eclipse?
    A. It occurs when the moon is in the earth’s
    umbra.
    B. It occurs at a full moon when the Earth is
    directly between the moon and the sun.
    C. It occurs when the moon crosses the path of
    the sun, but does not completely block it out.
    D. It occurs when the moon passes between the
    Earth and the sun, blocking the sunlight from
    reaching the Earth.
    2. When do solar eclipses
    occur?

    A. Only at first quarter


    B. Only at last quarter
    C. Only at new moon
    D. Only at full moon
    3. What do you see when the
    Earth is in the moon’s
    umbra?

    A. Partial lunar eclipse


    B. Partial solar eclipse
    C. Total lunar eclipse
    D. Total solar eclipse
    4. Which phase of the moon
    can a solar eclipse take
    place?

    A. First quarter
    B. Full moon
    C. Last quarter
    D. New moon
    5. What do you call the
    darkest part of the moon’s
    shadow?

    A. Eclipse
    B. Lunar eclipse
    C. Penumbra
    D. Umbra
    Solar eclipse happens when
    the sun, the moon and the
    Earth are aligned and blocked
    the sunlight from reaching the
    Earth. It will only take place at
    the phase of the new moon and
    will occur if the two ecliptic
    nodes meet.
    Two distinct parts of the Earth’s
    shadow during a solar eclipse:
    1. Umbra – refers to the darkest
    part of the moon’s shadow formed
    on the Earth where a total solar
    eclipse is seen
    2. Penumbra – refers to the lighter
    part of the moon’s shadow formed
    on the Earth where a partial solar
    eclipse is visible
    Draw Me! Directions: Using
    the figures and words below,
    draw and label a total solar
    eclipse and a partial solar
    eclipse. Then, answer the
    given guide questions in
    your Science activity
    notebook.
    Q10. When does a partial solar
    eclipse occur?
    Q11. When does a total eclipse
    happen?
    Q12. What part of the Earth’s
    moon shadow does a partial
    solar eclipse take place?
    Q10. When does a partial solar
    eclipse occur?
    Q11. When does a total eclipse
    happen?
    Q12. What part of the Earth’s
    moon shadow does a partial
    solar eclipse take place?
    A lunar eclipse is a natural
    phenomenon that can only happen
    in a full moon phase and could last
    for a few hours during nighttime.
    Take note that although you get to
    experience full moon once a month,
    it is rare to observe the Moon in
    perfect alignment with the Earth
    because of its orbit.
    A lunar eclipse only
    occurs when the Moon
    passes through the
    shadow of the Earth
    making the Earth
    directly in between the
    Sun and the Moon.
    Two distinct parts of the shadow
    created during a lunar eclipse:

    a. Umbra – the darker inner region


    of the Earth’s shadow where all the
    sunlight is blocked out
    b. Penumbra – the lighter outer
    region of the Earth’s shadow where
    the sunlight is partially covered
