qu.1.1.question=Tides are due to differential gravitational forces between the Earth and moon. At a given location on the Earth, tides
rise and fall because the <1>. There are two extremes of tides: $otherTide tides and $rightTide tides. $otherTide tides are <2> tides when the
moon and sun are <3>. $rightTide tides occur when the sun and moon are <4> and is signified by very <5> tides.
Facts related to eclipses
- <6> eclipses are a type of <7> eclipse that occur when the moon is inside the Earth's "dim shadow". These occur <8>,
but only barely decrease the moon's brightness and are often not noticed.
- The moon appears reddish during a <9> eclipse.
- During a partial lunar eclipse the moon is partly within the earth's <10> .
- The umbra does not quite reach the Earth during an annular eclipse, so the sun is seen as <11> around the moon.
- The best time to view the sun's outer atmosphere is when a <12> eclipse takes place.
- During $eclipse solar eclipse, the angular diameter of the moon is <13> that of the sun.
- The Saros cycle allows prediction of eclipse events quite accurately and has a period of about <14>.
