Answer: There is not enough information to answer the question accurately.

The length of the minor arc in a tree ring depends on the circumference of the tree ring and the angle that the arc subtends at the center of the ring. Without additional information about the sizes and shapes of the two tree rings, we cannot determine the length of the minor arc in the large tree ring based solely on the length of the minor arc in the small tree ring.
