The hot glowing surfaces of stars emit energy in the form of electromagnetic radiation. It is a good approximation to assume tha

t the emissivity eee is equal to 1 for these surfaces.
Required:
a. Find the radius RRigel of the star Rigel, the bright blue star in the constellation Orion that radiates energy at a rate of 2.7 x 10^31 W and has a surface temperature of 11,000 K.
b. Find the radius RProcyonB of the star Procyon B, which radiates energy at a rate of 2.1 x 10^23 W and has a surface temperature of 10,000 K. Assume both stars are spherical. Use σ=5.67 x 10−8^ W/m^2*K^4 for the Stefan-Boltzmann constant.

Given that,

Energy H=2.7\times10^{31}\ W

Surface temperature = 11000 K

Emissivity e =1

(a). We need to calculate the radius of the star

Using formula of energy

H=Ae\sigma T^4

A=\dfrac{H}{e\sigma T^4}

4\pi R^2=\dfrac{H}{e\sigma T^4}

R^2=\dfrac{H}{e\sigma T^4\times4\pi}

Put the value into the formula

R=\sqrt{\dfrac{2.7\times10^{31}}{1\times5.67\times10^{-8}\times(11000)^4\times 4\pi}}

R=5.0\times10^{10}\ m

(b). Given that,

Radiates energy H=2.1\times10^{23}\ W

Temperature T = 10000 K

We need to calculate the radius of the star

Using formula of radius

R^2=\dfrac{H}{e\sigma T^4\times4\pi}

Put the value into the formula

R=\sqrt{\dfrac{2.1\times10^{23}}{1\times5.67\times10^{-8}\times(10000)^4\times4\pi}}

R=5.42\times10^{6}\ m

Hence, (a). The radius of the star is 5.0\times10^{10}\ m

(b). The radius of the star is 5.42\times10^{6}\ m

The time of motion of the track star is determined as 0.837 s.

<h3>Time of motion of the track star</h3>

The time of motion of the track star is calculated as follows;

T = (2u sinθ)/g

where;

  • T is time of motion
  • g is acceleration due to gravity
  • θ is angle of projection

T = (2 x 12 x sin20)/9.8

T = 0.837 s

2. A solution that contains a small amount of salt and a large amount of water is said to be a _______ solution.
koban [17]
2. A dilute solution means that the amount of solvent (water, for this particular case) is significantly larger than the solute (salt). Thus, the answer is D. 6. John Dalton's atomic theory states that matter is made up of tiny indestructible objects called matter. The theory also indicates that although same elements have the same atoms, each element have unique set atoms that deinfe them. From this, we can conclude that the wrong assumption is C. 9. Atoms, by default, are electrically neutral. When an atom loses or gains electron/s, then they become ionized atoms or commonly called as ions. Thus, ionized atoms imply unequal number of protons and electrons. This means the answer must be A. 11. Analgesics are commonly used to relieve pain. Thus, the answer is C. 14. Adding up the atomic mass of the individual atoms will give you the molar mass of a compound. Therefore, the answer is B.: 15. The pH scale provides us the alkalinity or acidity of a solution based on the value. A value between 0 to 6 indicates that the solution is acidic. 7 is considered neutral and a value between 7 and 14 indicates that the solution is basic. Thus, the answer is D. 19. An element has consistent properties and can no longer be further identified into having individual properties. Thus, the answer is A. 20. The valence of an element dependeds on the number of electrons on the outermost shell. Thus, it is equal to the number of charge negative or positive charges on the ion. Hence, we have A<span>. :</span>
