1. How many days did the 20th century have?
Correct Answer: B
2. Calculate the average diameter of total solar eclipse if the distance Earth-Moon is 384 000 km and the distance Sun-Earth is 149.6 million km. Take diameter of Sun = 1.39 million km, diameter of the Earth = 12 576 km and that of Moon = 3476 km. Use the similarity formula of trapezium D/d = H/h where D is the greatest diameter, d is the smallest diameter, H is the greatest distance (height of large trapezium) and h is the smallest distance (height of smaller trapezium).
Correct Answer: C
3. Assuming that today the Sun, Earth and Venus are perfectly aligned, find when this phenomenon will occur again for the next time. Take the following values for periods of revolution around the Sun: TE = 365.24 days and TV = 224.65 days.
Correct Answer: D
