Answer: The hottest star is Archenar( blue) and the coolest star is Betelgeuse

Explanation:

Objects emit radiation that depends exclusively on their temperature. At an ambient temperature, the radiation emitted by an object is in the infrared spectrum (we could only see it with a special camera). If we heat it we will see that it first turns red (whose state we call “red hot”) because it is the lowest and least energetic wavelength of all.

If we continue to heat it, the wavelength that it emits to one with more energy will continue to increase and we will see that it turns yellow and then white. This is a signal that is emitting at all frequencies (but mainly in blue).

If we continue to warm a body that is "white hot", it would emit in the ultraviolet spectrum, with what would become ... black! then we would not see it emits light in the visible spectrum (well, we would see a very faint bluish light corresponding to the tail of the distribution of the spectrum it emits, but the peak of that spectrum would be in the ultraviolet).

What two factors determine how bright a star appears to be in the sky?
Delicious77 [7]

Answer:

1. Luminosity

2.Apparent brightness

Explanation:

There are two factors on which brightness of star appear to be in the sky

The two factors are

1. Luminosity

2.Apparent brightness

1.Luminosity :It is defined as the total energy emitted by the object in a given time.Luminosity vary with the distance of observer from the star.Luminosity is a intrinsic property which depends on the fundamental chemical composition and structure of the  material.Luminosity is depends on the size of star.Lager the star luminosity will be more.

2.Apparent brightness: It is defined as how bright a star appears from an observer on the earth and the amount of starlight reaching the earth.if the distance is large then the brightness decreases.When the distance of star from us small then the   brightness of star increases.Distance is inversely proportional to brightness of the star.

Six identical resistors are connected in series with a battery. The number of joules per second supplied by the battery is then
Nataly_w [17]

Answer:

The option (b) is correct.

Explanation:

The expression for the power in terms of work done is as follows;

P=\frac{W}{t}

Here, W is the work done, t is the time taken and P is the power.

According to the given problem, six identical resistors are connected in series with a battery. The number of joules per second supplied by the battery is then determined.

The expression for the equivalent resistance in the series combination is as follows;

R_{eq}=R_{1}+R_{2}......+R_{6}

Put R_{1},R_{2}......,R_{6}=R.

R_{eq}=R+R+R+R+R+R

R_{eq}=6R

It is given in the problem that a seventh resistor is added (in series).

R_{eq}=R_{1}+R_{2}......+R_{7}

Put R_{1},R_{2}......,R_{7}=R.

R_{eq}=R+R+R+R+R+R+R

R_{eq}=7R

The expression for the power in terms of voltage and resistance is as follows;

P=\frac{V^{2}}{R}

Here, R is the resistance.

From the above expression, it can be concluded that the power, the number of joules per second supplied by the battery is inversely proportional to the resistance. The equivalent resistance increases if the seventh resistance is connected with a battery.

If a seventh resistor is added (in series) the number of joules per second supplied by the battery decreases.

Therefore, the option (b) is correct.
