Answer:

mass-to-light ratio is the ratio of the mass of a body and the light output it has. it is represented by in terms of a single number and and tells us about the kind of stars making up the most luminous population in a galaxy. the mass-to-ratio of stars is greater than 1, for dark matter is 100 times high and very low for dust. higher mass-to-ratio mean that in a galaxy on average every solar mass emits a light less than the sun of the earth solar system does.

the large mass-to-light ratio shows that gas and dust is being analyzed.

Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer:

α = 3×10^-5 K^-1

Explanation:

let ΔL be the change in length of the bar of metal, ΔT be the change in temperature, L be the original length of the metal bar and let α be the coefficient of linear expansion.

then, the coefficient of linear expansion is given by:

α = ΔL/(ΔT×L)

= (0.3×10^-3)/(100)(100×10^-3)

= 3×10^-5 K^-1

Therefore, the coefficient of linear expansion is 3×10^-5 K^-1
