The transit method requires watching the light output of a star over long periods of time. A transit occurs when the planet crosses in front of its star from earths point of view. Since there is a small object (the planet) now blocking some of the star, it appears to dim a little bit for a while until the planet passes. If we are in a position where that occurs regularly (most paths of planets do not happen to be on the line of sight between earth and their star) we can deduce the period of orbit. From the amount of dimming and the period you can estimate the mass

What measurement can be used to determine the stability of the atmosphere?
agasfer [191]
I would say pressure, but it might depend on what you mean by stability. Pressure will tell you how many particles and how energized those particles are, the more particles the higher the pressure, the harder it is to change or remove the atmosphere due to the larger mass of it. Also consistent pressure measurements can tell you how stable the atmosphere in a particular region is. So if stability means how consistent are the weather conditions, pressure can be a good indicator too, differences and changing pressures can cause weather catastrophes like tornados and hurricanes.

When viewed in yellow light, an object that reflects all the colors of light will appear_____.
Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

Yellow.

Explanation:

An object that reflects all the incidents colors of light will surely reflect off the color yellow, and when the reflected ray hits our eyes, we will perceive the object as yellow. The object that reflects off all colors appears to us as white. So if you want to make sure, then just shine yellow light on a white fabric and see what happens!

What you will observe of course is a yellow fabric. Similarly, if you shine red light onto the fabric, it will appear red, and so on for all colors.
