We need to directly measure the spectral type in order to determine the surface temperature of a star.

<h3>How do you find the properties of a star?</h3>

Astronomers can determine the temperature of a star by looking at its color and spectrum. The apparent brightness of a star describes how luminous it looks to us. The brightness of a star tells us how bright it really is. The luminance can be determined using both the perceived brightness and the distance.

A star's luminosity, or the total amount of energy it emits each second, is determined by two factors: The stellar photosphere's "Effective Temperature," T. the star's total surface area, which is influenced by its radius, R.

Because it controls how much fuel a star has and how quickly it burns it, a star's mass is its most fundamental characteristic. The majority of a star's life is spent burning hydrogen into helium in its core, which generates energy. The star needs to achieve a balance between gravity and outward pressure in order to continue to be "alive."

77julia77 [94]

Answer:

air mass

Explanation:

These are known as the air mass. However, the air mass results in sever storms at times. The storms are known as tornadoes. The storms are also very powerful as they can cause the distraction of everything in their path.In addition, the large sections result in the different types of air masses. These air masses are known as:

  • polar
  • tropical
  • continental and
  • maritime.

The key difference between the binomial and hypergeometric distribution is that
Ivenika [448]

Explanation:

Both distributions describe the number of times an event occurs in a givn number of trials. In the binomial distribution, the probability is the same for each trial. While in the hypergeometric distribution, each trial changes the probability of each subsequent trial, since there is no replacement.

The Palo Verde nuclear power generator of Arizona has three reactors that have a combined generating capacity of 3.937×109 W . H
den301095 [7]

Answer:

t = 2.68 x 10¹⁴ years

Explanation:

First we need to find the amount of energy that Sun produce in one day.

Energy = Power * Time

Energy of Sun in 1 day = (3.839 x 10²⁶ W)(1 day)(24 hr/1 day)(3600 s/ 1 hr)

Energy of Sun in 1 day = 3.32 x 10³¹ J

Now, the time required by the nuclear power generator, in years, will be:

Energy of power generator = Energy Sun in 1 day = 3.32 x 10³¹ J

3.32 x 10³¹ J = Power * Time

3.32 x 10³¹ J = (3.937 x 10⁹ W)(t years)(365 days/1 year)(24 hr/1 day)(3600 s/ 1 hr)

t = 3.32 x 10³¹ /1.24 x 10¹⁷

<u>t = 2.68 x 10¹⁴ years</u>

A ride-sharing car moving along a straight section of road starts from rest, accelerating at 2.00 m/s2 until it reaches a speed
liq [111]

Answer:

A) total time = 55.5 seconds

B) average velocity = 25.27 m/s

Explanation:

It starts from rest, so initial velocity, u = 0 m/s

We are given;

acceleration; a = 2 m/s²

Final velocity; v = 31 m/s

From Newton's first law of motion,

v = u + at

So, 31 = 0 + 2t

t = 31/2

t = 15.5 sec

We are told that, after this time of 15.5 sec, the car travels 35 sec at a constant speed and after that it takes 5 sec additional time to stop. Thus;

(a) Total time in which car is in motion = 15.5 + 35 +5 = 55.5 seconds

b)Total distance traveled during first 15.5 sec would be gotten from Newton's second equation of motion which is;

S = ut + ½at²

S1 = 0 + ½(2 * 15.5²)

S1 = 240.25 m

Distance traveled in 35 sec with with velocity of 31 m/sec is;

S2 = velocity x time

S2 = 35 × 31 = 1085 m

Now, for the final stage, final velocity (v) will now be 0 since the car comes to rest while initial velocity(u) will be 31 m/s.

From the first equation of motion,

a = (v - u)/t

a = (0 - 31)/5

a = -6.2 m/s²

So, distance travelled is;

S3 = ut + ½at²

S3 = (31 × 5) + ½(-6.2 × 5²)

S3 = 155 - 77.5

S3 = 77.5 m

So overall total distance = S1 + S2 + S3

Overall total distance = 240.25 + 1085 + 77.5 = 1402.75 m

Average velocity = total distance/total time

Average velocity = 1402.75/55.5 = 25.27 m/s
