Answer:
Parallax would be most effective in measuring distances to stars which are close to the Earth.
Explanation:
In the experiment,
- The parallax shift would decrease as the pencil would move further away from the scientist's eye, so option 1 would be invalid.
- the size of the pencil remains constant, so option 2 would be invalid.
- the parallax shift can be observed when the pencil has objects in the background to provide relation, that is to say, the shift of the pencil when seen relative to background objects; therefore, if we assume that the pencil is a star nearby to the Earth, and the background objects are stars that are further away, then the shift of, and thus, distance to the nearby star can be easily observed.
Answer:
Lines of latitude measure north-south position between the poles. Lines of latitude are all parallel to each other, thus they are often referred to as parallels.
Lines of longitude, or meridians, run between the North and South Poles. They measure east-west position. The prime meridian is assigned the value of 0 degrees, and runs through Greenwich, England. Meridians to the west of the prime meridian are measured in degrees west and likewise those to the east of the prime meridian are measured to by their number of degrees east.
