Calculate two stars appear to you to have the same brightness. if star a is 7.00 light-years away from you, while star b is 15.0

0 light-years away, how many times more luminous is star b than star a?

It  is eight times more than the star A.

<h3>What is luminosity  and on which it depends?</h3>

The luminosity of an object is a measure of its intrinsic brightness and is defined as the amount of energy the object emits in a fixed time.

luminousity depends upon the two factors are:

1) The star's actual brightness

Some stars are naturally more luminous than others ,so the brightness level from one star to next star is significantly different.

2) The star distance from us

The more distance of an object the dimmer it appears.

Energy emitted = sAT⁴

where s is stefan constant

A is surface area and T is temperature  .

A vertically polarized beam of light of intensity 100 W/m2 passes through two ideal polarizers. The transmission axis of the fir
TEA [102]

To solve the problem it is necessary to apply the Malus Law. Malus's law indicates that the intensity of a linearly polarized beam of light, which passes through a perfect analyzer with a vertical optical axis is equivalent to:

I=I_0 cos^2\theta

Where,

I_ {0} indicates the intensity of the light before passing through the polarizer,

I is the resulting intensity, and

\theta indicates the angle between the axis of the analyzer and the polarization axis of the incident light.

Since we have two objects the law would be,

I=I_0cos^2\theta_1*cos^2(\theta_2-\theta_1)

Replacing the values,

I=100*cos^2(20)*cos^2(40-20)

I=100*cos^4(20)

I=77.91W/m^2

Therefore the intesity of the light after it has passes through both polarizers is 77.91W/m^2

Why does a projectile fired along a horizontal not follow a straight path?​
Stella [2.4K]

Answer: A projectile which is fired horizontally is being constantly acted upon by acceleration due to gravity, acting vertically downwards. Hence, it does not follow a straight line path. Also Why a projectile fixed along the horizontal not follow a straight line path? Because the projectile fired horizontally is constantly acts upon by acceleration due to gravity acting vertically downwards.

Hope this helped :)
