Answer:
b) Betelgeuse would be
times brighter than Sirius
c) Since Betelgeuse brightness from Earth compared to the Sun is
the statement saying that it would be like a second Sun is incorrect
Explanation:
The start brightness is related to it luminosity thought the following equation:
(1)
where
is the brightness,
is the star luminosity and
, the distance from the star to the point where the brightness is calculated (measured). Thus:
b)
and
where
is the Sun luminosity (
) but we don't need to know this value for solving the problem.
is light years.
Finding the ratio between the two brightness we get:

c) we can do the same as in b) but we need to know the distance from the Sun to the Earth, which is
. Then

Notice that since the star luminosities are given with respect to the Sun luminosity we don't need to use any value a simple states the Sun luminosity as the unit, i.e 1. From this result, it is clear that when Betelgeuse explodes it won't be like having a second Sun, it brightness will be 5 orders of magnitude smaller that our Sun brightness.
Answer:
3.036×10⁻¹⁰ N
Explanation:
From newton's law of universal gravitation,
F = Gm1m2/r² .............................. Equation 1
Where F = Gravitational force between the balls, m1 = mass of the first ball, m2 = mass of the second ball, r = distance between their centers.
G = gravitational constant
Given: m1 = 7.9 kg, m2 = 6.1 kg, r = 2.0 m, G = 6.67×10⁻¹¹ Nm²/C²
Substituting into equation 1
F = 6.67×10⁻¹¹×7.9×6.1/2²
F = 321.427×10⁻¹¹/4
F = 30.36×10⁻¹¹
F = 3.036×10⁻¹⁰ N
Hence the force between the balls = 3.036×10⁻¹⁰ N
Answer:
Yes
Explanation:
The farther something is from the center of mass of an object such as a planet, the lower the gravitational force between them
F = GMm/d²
1. Our solar system is the only place in the universe where gravity played a key part in the formation of planets.
2. Rocky planets are small, dense, and orbit relatively close to the sun, compared to the Jovian planets, which are large, less dense, and orbiting far from the sun.
3. _______
Explanation:
Because the temperature and the radiation are not correlated, they're not represented as functions of each other, they're represented as independent variables thus using graph 5 you cannot figure out how one affect another
