11. For each pair of objects in the table below, estimate the ratio of the distance between the objects to their size. Obtain the distances for your estimates from the order of magnitude tool shown in Figure 1-3. List the pairs from the smallest to the largest ratios. Object Milky Way Galaxy Sun Jupiter Earth Approximate Size 100,000 ly 108 m 107 m 106 m Distance to Andromeda Galaxy = Alpha Centauri- Sun= Moon = 10 billion light-years (1026 m) Zoom in (x 0.1) (x 10) Zoom out Figure 1-3 Shown here is the order of magnitude tool from Lesson 3. Use the distance given at the various orders of magnitude to make your esti- mates for the questions in Lesson 3. Distance/Size 11.
