There are many ways to calculate distance at huge scales. One popular way is using a Cepheid within the nebula. A Cepheid is a very luminous variable star (a star that changes brightness). The changing of brightness tells us a lot about the distance by measuring the period (time) and the luminosity.

What are examples of nebulae?
Planetary nebulae (the cat's eye nebula) Emission nebulae (the orion nebula) Dark nebulae (the horsehead nebula) Supernova remnant nebulae (the crab)
Can a laser measure device calculate distance?
A laser measuring device can calculate distance. However, measuring distance with a laser measure can be easier or more difficult depending on the model you purchase.
What are two elements which are abundant in nebulae?
Ionized hydrogen and helium are the most abundant chemical elements in nebulae.
To find the acceleration of an object moving in a straight line you must calculate the charge in distance during unit of time?
You calculate the charge in velocity, not in distance.
What is formula is used to calculate speed?
Distance travelled / time taken to travel the distance
Who measure the distance of Andromeda nebulae?
Hubble
How many stars form from nebulae?
it depends on how large the nebulae is. The largest of nebulae (in both distance and height) form the largest number of stars while the smallest of nebulae (in both distance and height) form the least number of stars. Therefore there is no fixed number for the number of stars that can be formed from a single nebulae (a variable amount of stars can be formed from one nebulae)
Who measured the distance of Andromeda Nebulae and named after him?
Andromeda Galaxy

What is a diffuse nebulae?
In astronomy, diffuse nebulae is the general term for illuminated nebulae. The three types of diffuse nebulae are reflection nebulae, emission nebulae and supernova remnants. They are diffuse as opposed to the non-diffuse dark nebulae, i.e. the particles have spread out.
