The apparent brightness of a star remains constant at most time, except that at precise intervals of 173 hours, the star becomes
natulia [17]

Answer:

The most likely explanation is that the star is a member of an eclipsing binary star system.

Explanation:

An eclipsing binary star system takes place when two stars which are close to each other move in an orbit in which sometimes, one star can hide the light behind the other.

There are two types of eclipses depending on the orientation of the orbit and the size of the stars: the totals or the annular ones. It may also be the case that the eclipses are partial.

<em>Algol </em>is the best known eclipsing binary star, and the first of this kind to be discovered. Its interval between eclipses is 173 hours (2.9 days).

When this type of eclipses happens, the brightest star provides 92% of the light of the system, while the eclipsed only contributes less than 8%, and there is a third star, which is not eclipsed.

Therefore, if there is any star that has been bright most of the time, and during certain time intervals it becomes dimmer, that star is being overshadowed.

Interview of tropical cyclone ​
xenn [34]
A tropical cyclone (TC) is a rotational low-pressure system in tropics when the central pressure falls by 5 to 6 hPa from the surrounding and maximum sustained wind speed reaches 34 knots (about 62 kmph). It is a vast violent whirl of 150 to 800 km, spiraling around a centre and progressing along the surface of the sea at a rate of 300 to 500 km a day.
The word cyclone has been derived from Greek word ‘cyclos’ which means ‘coiling of a snake’. The word cyclone was coined by Heary Piddington who worked as a Rapporteur in Kolkata during British rule. The terms "hurricane" and "typhoon" are region specific names for a strong "tropical cyclone". Tropical cyclones are called “Hurricanes” over the Atlantic Ocean and “Typhoons” over the Pacific Ocean. The reason is that the earth's rotation sets up an apparent force (called the Coriolis force) that pulls the winds to the right in the Northern Hemisphere (and to the left in the Southern Hemisphere). So, when a low pressure starts to form over north of the equator, the surface winds will flow inward trying to fill in the low and will be deflected to the right and a counter-clockwise rotation will be initiated. The opposite (a deflection to the left and a clockwise rotation) will occur south of the equator.
This Coriolis force is too tiny to effect rotation in, for example, water that is going down the drains of sinks and toilets. The rotation in those will be determined by the geometry of the container and the original motion of the water. Thus, one can find both clockwise and counter-clockwise flowing drains no matter what hemisphere you are located. If you don't believe this, test it out for yourself.

The time at the Greenwich Meridian is 1 PM calculate the time at a location 65 degrees west
sesenic [268]

Answer:

Time = 8:40\ am

Explanation:

Given

Time = 1PM\ GMT

Location = 65^o\ W

Required

Time at the given location

First, we convert degrees to time

1^o =4\ mins

S

So:

Location = 65^o\ W

Location = 65 * 4\ mins

Location = 260\ mins

Convert to minutes

Location = 4hr: 20\ mins

This means that the location is 4hr:20 minutes behind 1 PM

So, the time at the location is:

Time = 1pm -4hr: 20\ mins

Time = 8:40\ am
