<span>The correct answer is plate tectonics. The outermost shell of Earth, called the lithosphere, is partitioned into different tectonic plates (7 or 8 major ones). When a plate breaks along what are called faults, there is a release of energy, which causes seismic waves (the ground shaking). This shaking then causes several plates to rub against each other, and when they break, the earthquake results.</span>
Answer:
The average luminance of the Sun is about 1.88 giga candela per square metre, but as viewed through Earth's atmosphere, this is lowered to about 1.44 Gcd/m2. However, the luminance is not constant across the disk of the Sun (limb darkening).
Explanation:
Answer: two solar eclipses separated by one Saros cycle will have the same geometric characteristics (they will both be total, or partial or annular).
A Saros is a period of time of about 18 years 11 days and 8 hours and represents the time needed for the system composed by Moon, Earth, and Sun to return to its initial position.
Indeed, this is due to a natural harmony of the Moon’s motion: it takes 29.53 days to complete one orbit around Earth (Synodic Month), it takes 27.21 days to pass from the same node of its orbit (Draconic Month) and it takes 27.55 days to go from perigee to perigee (Anomalistic Month); the composition of these three motions gives one Saros of around 6585.3 days, composed by 223 Synodic Months, 239 Anomalistic Months and 242 Draconic Months (with a precision of few hours).
It has been observed that after one Saros cycle Moon, Earth and Sun are in the same initial position, therefore an eclipse occurring on day 1 of two consecutive Soros cycles would have the same geometric characteristics, which means that one Saros can be considered the periodicity of solar and lunar eclipses.
Due to the fact that a Saros is not composed by a whole number of days (we have a remainder of 8 hours), the two eclipses won’t be visible from the same location on Earth due to the rotation around its axis. It takes about 3 Soros for this to happen.
