The angle of 1' (minute of arc) in radian is nearly equal to

A

`4.85 xx 10^(-4) rad`

B

`4.80 xx 10^(-6) rad`

C

`1.75 xx 10^(-2) rad`

D

`2.91 xx 10^(-4) rad`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

1 minute of arc = `1. = (1/60)^0 = 1/60 xx pi/180` radian
`= 2.91 xx 10^(-4)` radian.
