Answer:
[tex]Angular separation = 1.25\times 10^{-5} degree[/tex]
Explanation:
given data:
Distance of individual to solar system is 7.2 light year
Distance between earth and sun is[tex] 1.496\times 10^8 km[/tex]
D =7.2 light year [tex]= 7.2\times 9.46\times 10^{13} km[/tex]
we know that angular seperation is given as
[tex]Angular\ separation = \frac{ dis.\ btwn\ earth\ and\ sun}{2\pi D} \times 360[/tex]
putting all value in the above relation to get angular separation
[tex]Angular\ separation = \frac{1.496\times 10^ 8}{2\pi \times7.2\times 9.46\times 10^{13}} \times 360[/tex]
[tex]Angular separation = 1.25\times 10^{-5} degree[/tex]
