The moon is 3.85 × 10⁸ m from the earth and has a diameter of 3.48 × 10⁶ m. You have a pea (diameter = 0.50 cm) and a dime (diameter = 1.8 cm). You close one eye and hold each object at arm’s length (71 cm) between your open eye and the moon. Which objects, if any, completely cover your view of the moon? Assume that the moon and both objects are sufficiently far from your eye that the given diameters are equal to arc lengths when calculating angles.

(a) Both

(b) Neither

(c) Pea

(d) Dime
