During a lunar eclipse , earth casts a shadow on the moon . what type of shadow would earth cast if it were flat? what type of shadow does earth cast on the moon during a lunar eclipse ?

When a planet or moon gets in the way of sunlight approaching that planet or moon is called an Eclipse. Planet Earth (home planet) contains two types of Eclipses namely:

Difference between two eclipses:

The name of the eclipse describes it self. Like in Solar eclipse sun gets darker and in the lunar eclipse moon gets darker.

Lunar Eclipse: In lunar eclipse earths gets in the way of sunlight and cast a shadow on moon, due to which full moon fades away at night and covered in earths shadow completely.

Types of lunar eclipse: There are two types of lunar eclipse on earth namely:

1).  What type of shadow does Earth cast on the Moon during a lunar eclipse ?

It can be reddish or very dark depending on the type of lunar eclipse happening. In total lunar eclipse earth is completely positioned opposite to sun and moon which makes moon appear red. While in partial eclipse earth cast the very dark shadow on only that part of moon which comes in the way.

2). What type of shadow would Earth cast if it were flat?

The type of shadow also depends on the positioning of earth,, moon and sun. The shadow of the round object is circular when lightens face-on, but will appear as a straight line when viewed from the edge. The sphere object only cast a round shadow on moon. It doesn't depend on the moon that whether the moon is high or low in the sky. If the object is sphere then the shadow casts on moon is in round form.
