Meredith is viewing a solar eclipse using a solar sunglasses. She is located in the penumbra of the Moon's shadow. Which type of eclipse is Meredith experiencing?

The eclipse that Meredith is experiencing is a partial solar eclipse, which is the one that can be observed from the penumbra.

Explanation:

A solar eclipse occurs as a consequence of the interposition of the moon between the earth and the sun, which causes the sun -during the day- to be hidden for the areas where the moon produces shadows on the earth's surface.

Penumbra is the outermost area of shadows produced by the moon during a solar eclipse, and what can be seen from there is a partially hidden sun, so it must be seen with sunglasses or special filters to avoid damage to the retina.
