Answer:

density

Explanation:

  • Due to the density of the rocks that vary the scientist believe is the reason for the hot and plastic-like rocks to form in the earth's asthenosphere and rise above the surface.
  • As the rocks with a higher density and a higher weight exert great pressure and force that lead to the rise of magma and escape of gases from the surface and the thus the magma is released to the surface of the earth.

An astronomer has been observing two Cepheid variable stars over the course of a month. Both variable stars have the exact same
Troyanec [42]

Answer:

The luminosity of both the stars is same star A is closer to the planet Earth as compared to star B.

Explanation:

From the mentioned case we can infer that the most accurate relation between the stars and the astronomer on earth observing for over a period is that the luminosity of the stars is same.

The more drawn out the pulsation time frame, the more brilliant the star. The period-luminosity connection for old style Cepheid was found in 1908 by Henrietta Swan Leavitt in an examination of thousands of different stars in the Magellanic Clouds.
