Large telescopes often have small fields of view, i.e. it can only see a very small corner of the sky. For example, the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) Advanced Camera has a field of view that is roughly square and about 0.055 degree on a side. Calculate the angular area of the HST's field of view in square degrees.
plot the graph between square of the diameter of the ring and the number of rings with analysis of the graph
When the sun is directly overhead, it produces an illuminance of 105,000 lux on a horizontalsurface on the earth. It has an angular diameter of 0.53 degrees as seen from the earth, andthe distance from the sun to the earth is 150*10^6km. What is the average luminance of thesun?
