The Sun has<span> an "absolute magnitude" of </span>4.83 and an "apparent" magnitude of -26.8. (Which is the difference between the numbers). <span>Scientists use what is know as "</span>Absolute" Magnitude<span> to help them understand and compute how bright a star really is. The "</span>absolute" magnitude<span> of an object, such as a star, equals how bright that object would look if it were 10 parsecs, or 32.6 light years away from the Earth.</span>

What is the difference between an observation and an inference?
Vinvika [58]

Explanation:

observation is something what you could observe from your organs like eyes ears etc and also it is what you observed during an event for an experiment but inference is what you decide to do after observation or an event.

the act of inferring (to derive by reasoning). Observation = an act or instance of noticing or perceiving.

Thank u!

<span>If a plane has a velocity of 300 km/h and a tailwind of 20 km/h, then the vectors of both forces would add (assuming that the tailwind is blowing exactly at the airplanes back) to a total of 320 km/h. Hope it helps

How do I find the cosine of theta.
NNADVOKAT [17]

The value of cos θ in the given figure is 0.98.

<h3>What is cosine of an angle?</h3>

The cosine of an angle is defined as the sine of the complementary angle.

The complementary angle equals the given angle subtracted from a right angle, 90.

cos θ = sin(90 - θ)

For example, if the angle is 30°, then its complement is 60°

cos 30 = sin(90 - 30)

cos 30 = sin 60

0.866 = 0.866

<h3>Cosine of an angle with respect to sides of a right triangle</h3>

cos θ = adjacent side / hypotenuse side

adjacent side of the given right triangle is calculated as follows;

adj² = 10² - 2²

adj² = 100 - 4

adj² = 96

adj = √96

adj = 9.8

cos θ = 9.8/10

cos θ = 0.98

Thus, the value of cos θ in the given figure is 0.98.

What tripositive ion has the electron configuration [kr] 4d3 ? what neutral atom has the electron configuration [kr] 5s 2 4d2 ?
tigry1 [53]

(a)

Electronic configuration is given as follows:

[Kr]4d^{3}

Since, this is the electronic configuration of ion with+3 that means 3 electrons are removed. On adding the 3 electrons, the electronic configuration of neutral atom can be obtained.

Thus, electronic configuration of neutral atom is [Kr]4d^{5}5s^{1}.

The atomic number of Kr is 36, thus, total number of electrons become 36+6=42.

This corresponds to element: molybdenum. Thus, the tripositive atom will be Mo^{3+}.

(b) The given electronic configuration is [Kr]5s^{2}4d^{2}.

The atomic number of Kr is 36, thus, total number of electrons become 36+4=40.

This corresponds to element zirconium, represented by symbol Zr.
