उत्तर

The distance between the Sun and the Earth is 1.496 × 108 km

= 1.496 × 108 × 103 m

= 1496 × 108 m

The distance between the Earth and the Moon is 3.84 × 108 m.

The distance between the Moon and the Sun at particular time (solar eclipse)

= (1496 × 108 – 3.84 × 108) m

= (1496 – 3.84) × 108 m

= 1492.16 × 108 m
