Answer: The correct answer is A.

Explanation:

Matter can absorb or emit the light. It does not matter what is the source of light. It may be the surface of sun or star.

Atmosphere absorbs the part of white light  which is emitted from star. It produces a color spectrum marked by the dark lines. These dark lines are absorption lines. These lines show the characteristics of the elements present  in the gas.

The spectrum of star gives the information about the chemical composition of its atmosphere.

Therefore, Absorption of light in star's atmosphere is the scientific phenomenon which helps scientists to determine the chemical composition of some star.

A person applies a rightward force of 80 N to a cart of physics textbooks what is the reaction force
Goryan [66]

Just as Prof. Newton said: "For every action, there is an EQUAL, OPPOSITE reaction.". (See his motion law #3.)

If our person APPLIED a force of 80N pointing to the right, then that's the 'action'.  It must follow, as the night follows the day, that the strength of the equal REaction is also 80N, and it points to the left because it's opposite to the action.

ZanzabumX [31]

Answer:

acc to formula= F= G m1m2/rsq

mass of Uranus= F×r sq/G×m

M=3.00×10^25×761.4×761.4×10^6/6.67×10^ -11×3.01×10^21

=3×10^25-8×7614×7614/667×301×10^-2-11+21-2

=173918988×10^11/200767

=866×10^11(approx)
