From a particular location on Earth, why can we see many more total eclipses of the Moon than total eclipses of the Sun?

the Moon is much bigger in the sky than the Sun

a total lunar eclipse is visible over a much larger part of the Earth’s surface than a total solar eclipse

the Moon is always in the same place in our sky, while the Sun moves around the sky

the line-up of the Earth, Moon, and Sun needed for a lunar eclipse happens many, many times more often than the line-up needed for a solar eclipse

Atwo-stage air compressor operates at steady state, compression 10m^3/min of air from 100 kpa and 300k to 1200 kpa. an intercooler between the two stages cools the air to 300k at a constant pressure of 350 kpa. the compression processes are isentropic. a) calculate the power required to run the compressor, in kw b) compare the result to the power required for isentropic compression from the same inlet state to the same final pressure.
