If Star A is magnitude 1.0 and Star B is magnitude 9.6 , which is brighter and by what factor?
ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

Star A is brighter than Star B by a factor of 2754.22

Explanation:

Lets assume,

the magnitude of star A = m₁ = 1

the magnitude of star B = m₂ = 9.6

the apparent brightness of star A and star B are b₁ and b₂ respectively

Then, relation between the difference of magnitudes and apparent brightness of two stars are related as give below: (m_{2} - m_{1}) = 2.5\log_{10}(b_{1}/b_{2})

The current magnitude scale followed was formalized by Sir Norman Pogson in 1856. On this scale a magnitude 1 star is 2.512 times brighter than magnitude 2 star. A magnitude 2 star is 2.512 time brighter than a magnitude 3 star. That means a magnitude 1 star is (2.512x2.512) brighter than magnitude 3 bright star.

We need to find the factor by which star A is brighter than star B. Using the equation given above,

(9.6 - 1) = 2.5\log_{10}(b_{1}/b_{2})

\frac{8.6}{2.5}  = \log_{10}(b_{1}/b_{2})

\log_{10}(b_{1}/b_{2}) = 3.44

Thus,

(b_{1}/b_{2}) = 2754.22

It means star A is 2754.22 time brighter than Star B.

flat sheet is in the shape of a rectangle with sides of lengths 0.400 mm and 0.600 mm. The sheet is immersed in a uniform electr
Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer:

6.29591\times 10^{-6}\ N/C^2

Explanation:

Flux is given by

\phi=EAcos\theta

A = Area

A=0.4\times 10^{-3}\times 0.6\times 10^{-3}

E = Electric field = 76.7 N/C

Angle is given by

\theta=90-20\\\Rightarrow \theta=70^{\circ}

\phi=76.7\times 0.4\times 10^{-3}\times 0.6\times 10^{-3}\times cos70\\\Rightarrow \phi=6.29591\times 10^{-6}\ N/C^2

The flux through the sheet is 6.29591\times 10^{-6}\ N/C^2

Consider a parachutist that has reached terminal velocity. which of the following is true? A.) The acceleration of the parachuti
trasher [3.6K]
The correct answer is:
<span>B.) At terminal velocity there is no net force 

In fact, when the parachutist reaches the terminal velocity, his velocity does not change any more. It means that the acceleration acting on the parachutist is zero, and for Newton's second law, this means the net force acting on him is zero:
</span>\sum F = ma = 0
<span>because the acceleration is zero: a=0. 
This also means that the two relevant forces acting on the parachutist (gravity, downward, and air resistance, upward) are balanced to produce a net force equal to zero.</span>

When light propagates through two adjacent materials that have different optical properties, some interesting phenomena occur at
Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

First, the different indices of refraction must be taken into account (in different media): for example, the refractive index of light in a vacuum is 1 (since vacuum = c).  The value of the refractive index of the medium is a measure of its "optical density":  Light spreads at maximum speed in a vacuum but slower in others  transparent media; therefore in all of them n> 1. Examples of typical values ​​of  are those of air (1,0003), water (1.33), glass (1.46 - 1.66) or diamond (2.42).

The refractive index has a maximum value and a minimum value, which we can calculate the minimum value by means of the following explanation:

The limit or minimum angle, α lim, is defined as the angle of refraction from which  the refracted ray disappears and all the light is reflected. As in the maximum value of  angle of refraction, from which everything is reflected, is βmax = 90º, we can  know the limit angle (the minimum angle that we would have to have to know the minimum index of refraction) by Snell's law:

 βmax = 90º ⇒ n 1x sin α (lim) = n 2 ⇒ sin α lim = n 2 / n 1

Explanation:

When a light ray strikes the separation surface between two media  different, the incident beam is divided into three: the most intense penetrates the second  half forming the refracted ray, another is reflected on the surface and the third is  breaks down into numerous weak beams emerging from the point of incidence in  all directions, forming a set of stray light beams.
