Answer:

  D.  Polaris and Sirius are farther away than the Sun.

Explanation:

The radiation intercepted by Earth is inversely proportional to the square of the distance from the source. Polaris and Sirius are substantially farther away than the sun.

Polaris, for example, is about 27 million times farther away, so even though it is 4000 times brighter, we receive on the order of 5×10^-12 as much radiation from that star as from the sun.

We feel less heat from stars other than the Sun because they are farther away.

Complete each of the definitions with the appropriate phrase. Precision means that measurements are close to Accuracy means that
sergiy2304 [10]

Answer: Precision means that measurements are close to each other . Accuracy means that measurements are close to accepted value

Explanation:

Precision refers to the closeness of two or more measurements to each other.  

For Example: If we weigh a given substance five times and you get 5.0 kg each time. Then the measurement is very precise.

Accuracy refers to the closeness of a measured value to a standard or known value.

For Example: If the mass of a substance is 5.0 kg and one person weighed 4.9 kg and another person weighed 3.9 kg. Then, the weight measured by first person is more accurate.

Thus Precision means that measurements are close to each other . Accuracy means that measurements are close to accepted value.
