Answer:
1. about 1.5 AU
2. about 5 AU
3. about 8 light-years
4. about 100,000 light-years
5. less than 0.01 AU
Explanation:
a. Mars is about 1.5 AU from the Sun.
b. Jupiter is about 5 AU from the Sun.
c. The star Sirius is about 8 light-years from the Sun.
d. The diameter of the Milky Way Galaxy is about 100,000 light-years.
e. The distance from Earth to the Moon is less than 0.01 AU.
Note: AU is an acronym for Astronomical Unit and it is a standard unit by astronomers to illustrate the distance between the planetary bodies found in the solar system.

The period of a pendulum is given by

where L is the pendulum length and g is the gravitational acceleration.
We can write down the ratio between the period of the pendulum on the Moon and on Earth by using this formula, and we find:

where the labels m and e refer to "Moon" and "Earth".
Since the gravitational acceleration on Earth is

while on the Moon is

, the ratio between the period on the Moon and on Earth is
