Answer: <em>The answer is OPTION "D"!</em>

Explanation: The track of the Moon's shadow across Earth's surface is called the Path of Totality. This path is typically 16,000 kilometers (about 10,000 miles) long but only 160 kilometers (100 miles) or so wide. In order to see the Sun totally eclipsed by the Moon, you must be in the path of totality.

Answer:

The path of a total eclipse that is swept out by the umbra shadow of the moon on the earth. The umbra is the dark center portion of a shadow. The Moon's umbra causes total solar eclipses, and the Earth's umbra is involved in total and partial lunar eclipses.

madreJ [45]

Answer

• Reducing heating needs

The three best strategies employed worldwide for conserving non-renewable energy resources are Reduce, Reuse and Recycle( 3R’s). Energy users are encouraged to increase reliance on renewable energies such as solar, wind and geothermal to aid in conserving the scarce fossil fuel that remain.

Walking and biking can be used as a strategy to cut down gas guzzling and manage the limited nonrenewable oil resources. One popular way of heating homes is oil heating. However, the conserve the oil, home owners are supposed to put up storm windows and insulate homes including caulking cracks around doors and windows to reduce heating costs. When using natural gas, users can reduce energy wasting by keeping the thermostat at 70 degrees and shutting off heat when not in use.
