How are the Tully-Fisher calculations for the distance to a galaxy different from those used for spectroscopic parallax?

Question 2

Rank the magnitudes of the following magnetic fields from largest to smallest, noting any cases of equality.
   (a) the field 2 cm away from a long, straight wire carrying a current of 3 A
   (b) the field at the center of a flat, compact, circular coil, 2 cm in radius, with 10 turns, carrying a current of 0.3 A
   (c) the field at the center of a solenoid 2 cm in radius and 200 cm long, with 1 000 turns, carrying a current of 0.3 A
   (d) the field at the center of a long, straight, metal bar, 2 cm in radius, carrying a current of 300 A
   (e) a field of 1 mT


  1.a > e > b > d > c
  2.e > d > b > c > a
  3.e > c > b > a > d
  4.e > c > b > a > d
  5.b > c > d > a > e

Answer to Question 1

Since we are still using the apparent and absolute brightness measurements the
calculations are the same but here we are using another independent variable to
determine the absolute brightness.

Answer to Question 2

Glaucoma is a leading cause of blindness. As of yet, there is no cure. Everyone is at risk, and there may be no warning signs. It is six to eight times more common in African Americans than in whites. The best and most effective way to detect glaucoma is to receive a dilated eye examination.
