A solar eclipse is a fairly quick event - from beginning to end is never more than a few hours. The total part of a solar eclipse at one location is never more than 7.5 minutes; the partial phases of the eclipse before and after take the remainder of the time.

What is a solar eclipse diagram called?

You can draw a diagram with the Sun at one side, the Moon in the middle and the Earth on the other side. A shadow falls on the Earth and anyone on that part of the Earth sees a solar eclipse. Obviously the Moon is not that big, so when there is an eclipse on one part of the Earth, other people in many different places don't see one.
