What condition is necessary on earth to see eclipses of stars in binary star systems?

vitfil [10]2 years ago

The line of sight from earth to the star system must be very close to the orbital plane of the stars to see eclipses of stars in binary star systems.

Each star in a double star system, also known as a binary star system, gravitationally pulls in the second star, which circles around the pair's centre of mass. Each star will be seen to eclipse the other once every orbital period if their orbital plane is edge-on to Earth. Eclipsing binary is the name for such a system.

It is also referred to as an eclipsing variable star because in an eclipsing binary system, the total amount of light fluctuates on a regular basis. When one of the two stars in an eclipsing binary is eclipsed, the light curve of the system experiences a deep minimum, and when the other star is eclipsed, the light curve experiences a shallower minimum.

One possible result of the addition of carbon dioxide to the atmosphere is an increase in cloudcover, which, in turn, could part
mixas84 [53]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

The increase in cloud-cover occurs with introduction of larger amounts of aerosols into the atmosphere. The increased amounts of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere will result in an increase of the greenhouse effect. Basically, the carbon dioxide is a greenhouse gas, having properties that enable it to trap the heat into the Earth's atmosphere. By doing so, the carbon dioxide will contribute to warmer atmosphere, thus warmer global climate. The effect of it will be that the Earth will have rise in the temperatures on global scale. The ice sheets will mostly melt, resulting in sea level rise. The rise of the sea levels will mean more ocean water, and less land, which in turn will create climate conditions that will be warm and wet in most of the planet.
