Calculate the diameter of Jupiter.Please friends do this problem by taking log and antilog and give me exact answer.My humble request.Thankyou.​

Answer 1

Explanation:

ANSWER

Distance of Jupiter from the Earth, D=824.7×10

6

km

Angular diameter 35.72

′′

=35.72×4.874×10

−6

rad

Diameter of Jupiter = d

Using the relation,

θ = d/ D

d=θ D = 824.7 x 10

9

x 35.72 x 4.872 x 10

−6

= 143520.76 x 10

3

= 1.435 x 10

5

Km
