A, C, and D all happen at different stages
of a total lunar eclipse.
I'll describe the stages of the eclipse, but before I do, I just need
to clarify: The Earth doesn't have an umbra or a penumbra, but
its shadow does.
-- the eclipse begins when the first edge of the moon
moves into the penumbra of Earth's shadow; ( C )
this part of the moon grows steadily.
-- After a while, the first edge of the moon begins to move
into the umbra of Earth's shadow ( A ), and gets very dark.
-- The total phase of the eclipse begins when the ENTIRE
moon is in the umbra of Earth's shadow.
Then everything happens in reverse.
-- Eventually, the leading edge of the moon moves out
of the shadow's umbra, into the penumbra. This part
steadily grows.
-- After a while, none of the moon is in the umbra, and
the whole thing is in the penumbra. The moon is
fully illuminated, but not quite as bright as it should be.
-- Soon, the leading edge of the moon leaves the penumbra
of Earth's shadow, and gets brighter. This portion of the moon
steadily grows, until ...
-- the moon completely leaves the penumbra, all of it is as bright
as it's supposed to be. The eclipse is completely over. ( B )
==> The whole process lasts several hours.
==> Everybody on the night side of the Earth sees the same thing
at the same time. It doesn't matter WHERE you are on the night
side ... if you can see the moon in the sky, you see the present
phase of the eclipse.
==> The lunar eclipse can only happen at the Full Moon. In fact, the
mid-point of the total phase is the exact moment of Full Moon.

Answer:
Their experimental design lacks control group
Explanation:
Based on what I read, the scientists don't have a control group as one of the main groups thus they cannot, in scientific sense, say that the medicine is better or worse. You always need a control group receiving no intervention because then we can compare groups and assess the effectiveness of that intervention (in our case if we had control group vs people who received the medicine, we could see if the people who received the medicine had improved condition etc when compared to participants who did not receive anything)
Answer:
1. The nucleus is about 1/2 the size of the atom
Explanation:
Alpha particles are positive charge particles and they are bounced back by the nucleus because nucleus is also same size
Now in present experiment Rutherford found that very few alpha particles are bounced back along same path which shows that very small region inside the nucleus is having positive charge and rest part of the atom is empty.
Now if we found that half of the alpha particles are bounced back then it shows that size of the nucleus is very large now as compare to previous one because only nucleus can bounce back the alpha particles
so correct answer will be
1. The nucleus is about 1/2 the size of the atom
