1. The smallest shift you can reliably measure on the screen is about 0.2 grid units. This shift corresponds to the precision of positions measured with the best Earth-based optical telescopes. If you cannot measure an angle smaller than this, what is the maximum distance at which a star can be located and still have a measurable parallax

Explanation:

each grid corresponding  0.1s⁻¹.

0.2grid unit = 0.2×0.1 =0.02s⁻¹

distance of the star from telescope

d = 1/p

d= 1/0.02= 50 par sec

1par sec = 3.26 light year

1 light year = 9.5×10¹²km

3.26ly=3.084×10¹³km

d= 50×3.084×10¹³=1.55×10¹⁵km

the focus of lesson 1 is newton's first law of motion - sometimes referred to as the law of inertia. newton's first law of motion is often stated as. an object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion stays in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force.

explanation:

moving ball hits still ball. mover stops, hit ball moves. momentum transfer.
