This is an astronomy lab that id loved to receive help on! The instructions and what to do are on both pdfs attached, and Id love for work to be shown, that includes everything this lab on the pdf would want you to show work for example “When moon is near the horizon, hold a ruler (at least 1mm resolution or smallest division) at arm’s length so that it is in front of the Moon. Use your thumb–nails (or two index cards) to mark the edges of the Moon across the ruler as shown in Figure below. Denote it as s. At the same time, have a friend measure the distance from your eye to the ruler. Denote it as d. Make sure you are measuring the size at the widest point of the Moon. There might be more accurate ways to do this measurement say, taping a dime to the inside of the window and step back until the dime just covers the moon or other variations on this theme. You are encouraged to be inventive. Now use the small-angle approximation”. id want a picture of this attached with the rest of the assignment
