Answer: Temperature on monday morning is 319,5K

Explanation: This is an example of Gay Lussac law on gases which states that at constant volume, pressure and temperature are directly related, so if one raises the other one does as well.

The equation that follow the law is :

P1 / T1 = P2/T2 where 1 is the initial pressure and temperature and 2 is the final state.

In this equation, values have to be expressed in atm  for pressure and Kelvin for temperature.

P1 = 115 kPa .\frac{1 atm}{101,3kPa} = 1,135 atm

P2 = 108,75 kPa .  \frac{1atm}{101,3kPa} =  1,073 atm

The missing value is T2 (monday temperature), so we have to clear it from the equation

T2 =P2.T1/P1

Replacing values:

T2 = 1,073 atm . 338K /1,135 atm

T2 = 319,5 K

cestrela7 [59]

Answer:

The correct answer is - the star is a medium-size star.

Explanation:

On the basis of the given information, we know that the color of the sun and the color of the observed or studied star by astronomer is similar and on the basis of this observation, he stated that the temperature and the size of the sun is also similar.

As we know the size of the sun is medium in comparison to other star and have less temperature to the other stars which means it is cooler than other star and has a medium size.
