If the distance between us and a star is doubled, with everything else remaining the same, the luminosity Group of answer choice

Savatey [412]

Answer:

remains the same, but the apparent brightness is decreased by a factor of four.

Explanation:

A star is a giant astronomical or celestial object that is comprised of a luminous sphere of plasma, binded together by its own gravitational force.

It is typically made up of two (2) main hot gas, Hydrogen (H) and Helium (He).

The luminosity of a star refers to the total amount of light radiated by the star per second and it is measured in watts (w).

The apparent brightness of a star is a measure of the rate at which radiated energy from a star reaches an observer on Earth per square meter per second.

The apparent brightness of a star is measured in watts per square meter.

If the distance between us (humans) and a star is doubled, with everything else remaining the same, the luminosity remains the same, but the apparent brightness is decreased by a factor of four (4).

Some of the examples of stars are;

- Canopus.

- Sun (closest to the Earth)

- Betelgeuse.

- Antares.

- Vega.

The radial velocity method preferentially detects: Choose one: A. all of the above described planets equally well. B. small plan

Zina [86]

The radial velocity method preferentially detects large planets close to the central star

what is the Radial velocity:

The radial velocity technique is able to detect planets around low-mass stars, such as M-type (red dwarf) stars.

This is due to the fact that low mass stars are more affected by the gravitational tug of planets.

When a planet orbits around a star, the star wobbles a little.

From this, we can determine the mass of the planet and its distance from the star.

hence we can say that,

option D is correct.

Bryce, a mouse lover, keeps his four pet mice in a roomy cage, where they spend much of their spare time–when they\'re not sleep

Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

mice total momentum (-0.000250, 0.00639) Kg m

Explanation:

To calculate the moment of the mice we must multiply their mass by their velocities, remember that the moment is a vector quantity, so we use the components of velocity

mouse 1

m1 = 0.0225 Kg

V1 = (0.869, -0.283) m / s

Px = m Vx

Px1 = 0.0225 0.869

Px1 = 0.01955 Kg m

Py = m Vy

Py1 = 0.0225 (-0.283)

Py1 = -0.006368 Kg m

P1 = (0.0196, -0.00637) Kg m

Mouse 2

m2 = 0.0223 Kg

Px2 = 0.0223 (-0.883) = -0.0196 Kg m

Py2 = 0.0223 (-0.253) = -0.00564 Kg m

P2 = (-0.0196, -0.00564) Kg m

Mouse 3

m3 = 0.0197

Px3 = 0.0197 0.345 = 0.00680 Kg m

Py3 = 0.0197 0.803 = 0.0158 Kg m

P3 = (0.00680, 0.0158) Kg m

Mouse4

m4 = 0.0127 Kg

Px4 = 0.0127 (-0.555) = -0.00705 Kg m

Py4 = 0.0127 0.205 = 0.00260 Kg m

P4 = (-0.00705, 0.00260) Kg m

To find the total momentum we must add each component of the individual moments

Px = Px1 + Px2 + Px3 + Px4

Py = py1 + Py2 + Py3 + Py4

Px = 0.0196 -0.0196 +0.00680 -0.00705

Px = -0,000250 Kg m

Py = -0.00637 -0.00564 +0.0158 +0.00260

Py = 0.00639 Kg m

P = (-0.000250, 0.00639) Kg m
