Question 4 please Part 31. The diameter of the Sun is 1,391,400 km. The diameter of the Moon is3,474.8 km. Find the ratio, r= DSun/DMoon between the sizes.r= [Rsun / Dmeon]r= [1,391,400 / 3,474.8]r= 400.425r= 400.4252. From the point of view of an observer on Earth (consider the Earth as apoint-like object), during the eclipse, the Moon covers the Sun exactly.Sketch a picture to illustrate this fact. Use a ruler to get a straight line. Yourdrawing does not need to be in scale.3. The Sun is 1 Astronomical Unit (AU) away from the Earth. Find thedistance between the Earth and the Moon in AU's using the ratio of similartriangles. Show your work.DE/M =AU.Convert this to kilometers. Use 1 AU = 149,600,000 km.DE/M =km.4. From Earth, the angular size of the Moon is 0.5°. The distance between theEarth and the Moon is 384,400 km. Use the small-angle formula to find thesize of the Moon (Recall that you must first convert the angle to radians).Compare this number to the diameter of the Moon given previously. Is itconsistent?
