According to the question,
Where, AU stands for astronomical unit.
pc stands for parsec
From the given figure, it is clear that
and if p = 0.000210 than
And as
So,
Now, from the given diagram and for p = 0.000210 = 0.756 arcsecond , we can write
( used the approximation " tan (0.000210) ~ 0.000210 ")
For any doubt please comment and please give an up vote. Thank you.

I need question 6 5. Stellar Parallax and a Parsec (15 pts.) A star with l arcsecond parallax angle (0) it is definedto be 1 parsec away. Let's calculate the value of a parsec. Examine the diagram below. When viewed from the two positions (3 months apart), the star's position shifts by the angle e. Sun Earth Star (a) What is the distance (a) in km? (b) The distance (b) can be derived from trigonometry, tan(6) -alb. What is the...
please i need help with this Question 4 10 pts Brian is on Mars and decides to dump his physics textbook into this never before seen hydrocarbon lake. The atmospheric pressure in Mars is 1/4 that of Earth's and the gravitational acceleration is 3m/s^2. The hydrocarbon liquid has a density of 1300 kg/m^3. If the book is experiencing a force of 426 N underneath the lake, how deep is the book inside the lake? The book has a surface area...
