Answer:
It corresponds to a distance of 100 parsecs away from Earth.
Explanation:
The angle due to the change in position of a nearby object against the background stars it is known as parallax.
It is defined in a analytic way as it follows:
Where d is the distance to the star.
(1)
Equation (1) can be rewritten in terms of d:
(2)
Equation (2) represents the distance in a unit known as parsec (pc).
The parallax angle can be used to find out the distance by means of triangulation. Making a triangle between the nearby star, the Sun and the Earth (as is shown in the image below), knowing that the distance between the Earth and the Sun (150000000 Km), is defined as 1 astronomical unit (1AU).
For the case of (
):
Hence, it corresponds to a distance of 100 parsecs away from Earth.
<em>Summary:</em>
Notice how a small parallax angle means that the object is farther away.
Key terms:
Parsec: Parallax of arc second

Answer:</h2>
C.
<h2>
Explanation:</h2>
This is what we call a permanent magnet. By the way, the magnetic phenomena were first observed about 2500 years ago near the ancient city of Magnesia, what is today Manisa, located in western Turkey, when people saw fragments of magnetized iron. So <em>what happens if you cut a magnet in half? </em>Well, a magnet has two ends, the first one is called a north pole or N pole while the other end is a south pole or S pole, so if you break a bar magnet, each piece has a north and south pole, no matter the size of each new bar although the smaller the piece, the weaker its magnetism. This is true because unlike electric charges, you always find magnetic poles in pairs, that is, ¡they can't be isolated! The option is C. because in the great bar the north pole is to the left while the south pole is to right.
