The word 'apparent' mean in apparent visual magnitude is, how bright the star appears when viewed from Earth.

What is visual magnitude?

The brightness of a celestial body is determined by eye estimation with or without optical aid or by other instrumentation equivalent to the eye in spectral sensitivity.

Apparent magnitude:

  • Apparent magnitude is a measure of how bright the star appears when viewed from Earth.
  • It is a measure of the brightness of a star or other astronomical object observed from Earth.
  • An object's apparent magnitude depends on its intrinsic luminosity and its distance from Earth.

Hence,

The word 'apparent' mean in apparent visual magnitude is, how bright the star appears when viewed from Earth.

A Carnot engine has a power output of 150 kW. The engine operates between two reservoirs at 20.0°C and 500°
Nookie1986 [14]
Efficiency η of a Carnot engine is defined to be: 
<span>η = 1 - Tc / Th = (Th - Tc) / Th </span>
<span>where </span>
<span>Tc is the absolute temperature of the cold reservoir, and </span>
<span>Th is the absolute temperature of the hot reservoir. </span>

<span>In this case, given is η=22% and Th - Tc = 75K </span>
<span>Notice that although temperature difference is given in °C it has same numerical value in Kelvins because magnitude of the degree Celsius is exactly equal to that of the Kelvin (the difference between two scales is only in their starting points). </span>

<span>Th = (Th - Tc) / η </span>
<span>Th = 75 / 0.22 = 341 K (rounded to closest number) </span>
<span>Tc = Th - 75 = 266 K </span>

<span>Lower temperature is Tc = 266 K </span>
<span>Higher temperature is Th = 341 K</span>

The redshift of a star means that _____.
Gelneren [198K]
The correct answer is D. the star is getting farther away.

When the light has red-shifted, it shows that everything is moving away from a certain point. This is known as the Doppler effect and proves the Big Bang (which would be the center point that everything is moving away from). Just as a 'for your information', blue shift is when the star is moving towards us.

Hope I helped :)
