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

period of pulsation. Star A is twice as bright as Star B. Which of the following statements most accurately reflects the relationship between the astronomer (on Earth) and both Cepheid variable stars? Stars A and B have the same luminosity, but Star A is closer to Earth than Star B.Stars A and B have the same luminosity, but Star B is closer to Earth than Star A.Stars A and B are both the same distance from Earth, but the luminosity of Star A is greater than Star B

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.

Hello!

The garbage patchs are a site with high concentrations of trash. They are formed by the ocean gyre, where the ocean have convergences zones forming a circle of currents. When the garbage join the circle, it can't go out, cause the currents make a kind of a permanent "wall".

We can locate garbages patchs in the South Atlantic Gyre, Indian Ocean Gyre and the South Pacific Gyre.
