The true shadow where the celestial body completely blocks the light source (such as a total eclipse of the sun as viewed from Earth) is called the umbra. The partial shadow, for example if only a part of the limb of the body blocks the sun (like a partial solar eclipse) is called the penumbra.
A solar eclipse is when the Moon crosses the face of the Sun (Earth, Moon, Sun), and the Moon's shadow is cast over the Earth, causing a darkening of daylight. A lunar eclipse is when the Earth crosses the face of the Sun (Moon, Earth, Sun), and Earth's shadow is cast over the Moon, so hiding the Moon momentarily from view.
An eclipse, which could be either a solar or lunar eclipse.
that is called an eclipse. there are 2 types: solar and lunar eclipses.
This is an eclipse. A lunar eclipse is when the Moon passes through the shadow of the Earth. A solar eclipse is the Earth passing through the shadow of the Moon.
There is no such thing as "Earth's shadow... casting upon the Sun". When the Sun gets obscured, that's because the Moon covers it, from our point of view, and it is called a Solar eclipse.
That causes an eclipse.

Magnitude
An object launched to orbit Earth or another celestial body.
A tree's shadow does not have light. Anytime you are in the shadow of another object your body has no shadow of its own.
An eclipse is when one celestial body blocks another from sight: the moon gets in between the Earth and the Sun.
A celestial body is any physical body beyond the earth's atmosphere.
shadows are formed when opaque bodies obstruct the path of light.When light falls on an opaque body it does not allow light to pass hence light falls behind it in the surrounding regions and a shadow is formed
No sun doesn't revolve to any celestial body, but the celestial body revolve around the sun.
That's called an "orbit".
