Answer:

Explanation:

angle θ = 110 arcsec

= 110 /60 arcmin

= 1.8333 arcmin

= 1.8333 / 60 degree

= .030555 degree

= .030555 x π / 180 radian

= 5.33 x 10⁻⁴ radian .

linear diameter = angular diameter in radian x distance

= 5.33 x 10⁻⁴ x 25000

= 13.325 m

linear diameter of object = 13.325 m .
