Which is safest in a thunderstorm?

Geography
2 answers:
Alina [70]3 years ago

The correct answer is - b. staying low on the ground.

Whenever there's a thunderstorm, few things should be avoided in order to increase ones security and not get hit by an electrical charging from the sky.

Some of the things to be avoided are the higher trees, because the thunderstorms tend to hit the highest objects, and the water, because the water is excellent transmitter of electricity.

The best thing to do, is to get away from any water body, or high spot or tree, and be low on the ground, if possible lie on the ground, because in this case, the person will not be sticking out in the surrounding area, thus the chances of getting hit will be much smaller.

The safest thing you can do in a thunderstorm (if stranded outside) is B. staying low on the ground. The other options are highly dangerous, as they give you a higher chance of being struck or electrocuted.

it is possible for two stars to have different temperatures and different sizes but the same luminosity. explain how.
Darina [25.2K]

Answer:

Two stars (a and b) can have the same luminosity, but different surface area and temperature if the following condition is met:

(T_a^4)(R_a^2) = (T_b^4)(R_b^2)

Explanation:

The luminosity of a star is the total energy that produces in one second. It depends on the size of the star and its surface temperature.

L = σ(T^4)(4πR^2)

L is the luminosity f the star, T is the temperature of the surface of the star and R is its radius.  

Two stars can have the same luminosity if the relation between the radius and the surface temperature is maintained.  

To see this lets suposed you have 2 stars, a and b, and the luminosities of each one of them:

L_a = σ(T_a^4)(4πR_a^2)

L_b = σ(T_b^4)(4πR_b^2)

you can assume that L_a and L_b are equal:

σ(T_a^4)(4πR_a^2) = σ(T_b^4)(4πR_b^2)

Now, you can cancel the constants:

(T_a^4)(R_a^2) = (T_b^4)(R_b^2)

as long as this relation between a and b is true, then the luminosity can be the same.
