One AU is the distance from the Earth to the Sun. (So you could say one AU (or astronomical unit) is about eight light minutes) So, multiplying eight (the approximate time it takes for the light from the Sun to hit the Earth) by twelve, (the distance said Dwarf Planet is from the Sun in AU) you get 96 light minutes, or 1 light hour and 39 light minutes.

Ber [7]

Answer:

false

Explanation:

95% of product launches fail—often because a brand pushes them to launch without stopping to find out if the product is something people actually want. Even the most experienced decision-makers struggle to make the right calls without input from their target audience.

Based on your knowledge of blackbodies, should the hotter star or the cooler star be more luminous
Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

Hotter star is more luminous.

Explanation:

A blackbody is an object that absorbs all the radiation incident on it. It does not reflect or let the radiation pass through it.

When the radiations are absorbed, the blackbody heats up. This results in the emission of radiation by the blockbody.

The amount of radiation the black body emits, depends upon the temperature of the blackbody. Therefore, greater the temperature of the blackbody, more the emitted radiation.

A star is very similar to a blackbody. So, if two stars are compared, then the hotter star will emit more light as compared to the cooler star.

Therefore, the hotter star will be more luminous than the cooler star.
