Answer:

One of the primary advantages of thermal power is that the generation costs are extremely low. No fuel is needed to generate the power, and the minimal energy needed to pump water to the Earth's surface can be taken from the total energy yield.

Which rational number could be graphed between 0 and 1?A number line going from negative 5 to positive 3 in increments of 1.Nega

vovikov84 [41]

In order to find which rational number is between 0 and 1, let's convert them into their decimal form:

$\begin{gathered} \text{negative one-half:} \\ -\frac{1}{2}=-0.5 \\ \\ \text{one}-\text{fourth:} \\ \frac{1}{4}=0.25 \\ \\ \text{three}-\text{halves:} \\ 3\cdot\frac{1}{2}=\frac{3}{2}=1.5 \\ \\ 1.75 \end{gathered}$

Looking at the numbers in their decimal form, we can see that the number between 0 and 1 is one-fourth, therefore the correct option is the second one.

Explain the origin of the magnitude designation for determining the brightness of stars. Why does it seem to go backward, with s

Mashcka [7]

Answer:

Hipparchus was an ancient Greek who classified stars based on the brightness in 129 B.C. He grouped the brightest stars and ranked them 1 (first magnitude) and dimmest stars as 6 (sixth magnitude). Thus, the smaller numbers indicated brighter stars. Now, the scale extends in negative axis as well. More the negative number, brighter is the star. For example, Sun has magnitude -26.74.

This the apparent magnitude which means the classification is based on the brightness of the star as it appears from the Earth.
