Start at the beginning of the moon orbit video, which shows the sun and part of earth's orbit. if we wanted to show the moon's orbit on the scale of this starting frame, we would need to draw a circle that

The Sun's actual diameter is about 1.4 million km. Mercury's distance from the Sun is about 58 million km. Does the first frame of the video show the Sun cor-erectly scaled relative to Mercury's orbit?ANSWER:No, the Sun should be even smaller than it is shown.Yes, it is shown to scale.No, the Sun should be about twice as large as it is shown. Correct If you divide Mercury's distance by the Sun's diameter, the answer is about 40.Therefore, a correct scale would show the Sun's diameter as 1/40 of the distance to Mercury. If you measure on the screen, the white dot representing the Sun has a diameter that is more than 1/40 of the distance from the Sun to Mercury. This means that the Sun should be smaller than shown. Now, to answer Part A, recall that the actual diameter of the Moon's orbit is about half the diameter of the Sun
