The smallest detail visible with ground-based solar telescopes is about 1 arc second. How large a region (in km) does this repre

sent on the Sun? Hint: Use the small-angle formula: angular diameter (in arc seconds) 2.06 ✕ 105 = linear diameter distance . (Note: The average distance to the Sun can be found in Celestial profile: The Sun.)

Answer:

x = 727.5 km

Explanation:

With the conditions given using trigonometry, we can find the tangent

       tan θ = CO / CA

With CO the opposite leg and CE is the adjacent leg which is the distance from the Tierral to Sun

   

        D =150 10⁶ km (1000m / 1 km)

        D = 150 10⁹ m.

We must take the given angle to radians.

       1º  = 3600 arc s  

       π rad = 180º

       θ = 1 arc s (1º / 3600 s arc) (pi rad / 180º) =

       θ = 4.85 10⁻⁶ rad

That angle is extremely small, so we can approximate the tangent to the angle

     

       θ = x / D

       x = θ D

       x = 4.85 10-6  150 109

       x = 727.5 103 m

       x = 727.5 km

Dear Amrish

I have come to know that since your school has closed for the Autumn Break you have plenty of free time at your disposal at the moment. I would like to tell you that even I am having holidays now.

It has been a long time since we have spent some time together. If you are free, I would welcome to have your company this weekend. Why don’t you come over to my house and spend a day or so with me?

I am anxiously waiting for your reply.

Yours affectionately

your name
