Question

Which of these shows the position of the Sun, Moon, and Earth when a full moon phase occurs? (8.7B)

Answer 1

Answer:

Lunar eclipse

Explanation:

Lunar eclipse occurs when Earth comes in between sun and Moon. The moon is either partially or fully blocked and the moon sighting appears to be black from earth since the light rays coming from sun are blocked by Earth. Lunar eclipse occurs only at full moon. The moon is aligned with the position of earth and sun so that they all form a straight line.
