Check out this article from the International Journal of Mathematical Education titled ‘A Mathematical Treatment of Solar Eclipse Formation‘ by authors Arjun Tan, Almuatasim Alomari and Marius Schamschula from the Department of Physics at Alabama A & M University from 2016
The paper discusses the natural phenomenon of solar eclipses, which occur when the Sun, Moon, and Earth align during a new moon, causing the Sun to be partially or fully blocked by the Moon. It provides an in-depth analysis of total and annular solar eclipses and includes a mathematical exercise on partial solar eclipses.
