Why was parallax a problem in proving the heliocentric model?
a) A parallax was expected, according to theory.b) None was detected. The problem here is that even the closest star (apart from the Sun) are so far away that their parallax is less than one arc-second - i.e., less than 1/3600 of a degree, and therefore hard to measure.
An object that is farther away than another object will have a parallax?
Yes, objects that are farther away than others will exhibit less parallax. Parallax is the apparent change in position of an object when viewed from different perspectives. The closer an object is, the greater its parallax when viewed from different angles.
Which star would have a greater parallax the earth or the arcturus?
Earth isn't a star and doesn't (can't) have a parallax, becuse we use Earth's orbit as a baseline to measure parallax.
How is a parallax helpful to astronomers?
Parallax is the apparent change in postion of an object when looked at from two different places. Astronomers use parallax to find how far away nearby stars are.
If a star has a parallax of 0.20 arc seconds what is the distance to that star?
The distance to the star can be calculated using the formula: distance (parsecs) = 1 / parallax angle (arc seconds). Plugging in the given parallax of 0.20 arc seconds, the distance to the star would be 1 / 0.20 = 5 parsecs.
What method did the scientist demonstrate to calculate the distance of celestial bodies?
The scientist demonstrated the method of parallax to calculate the distance of celestial bodies.
Which scientist correctly explained about the center of earth?
Jules Verne

Parallax error is a problem that encounter when using a Digital camera?
Film Camera is the correct answer.
What scientist explained the two factors of gravity and inertia?
Isaac Newton.
How is Thomas Malthus important to economics?
He was a scientist who explained the malthusian theory
Who is the first scientist to explained the force of gravity?
sir issac newton
Why should you avoid parallax?
There is no such way to avoid parallax error, you just have to be careful.. :)
What is a parallax and what is it used for?
parallax is a planet
Why did people believe continental drift theory when Wagner first explained it?
the scientist were jealous of him
Which scientist explained correctly about the centre of earth?
Jules Verne
How the scientist solve their problem?
The scientist solved his problem by doing it over again several times. Also by constructing a hypothesis.
