Answer:
remains the same, but the apparent brightness is decreased by a factor of four.
Explanation:
A star is a giant astronomical or celestial object that is comprised of a luminous sphere of plasma, binded together by its own gravitational force.
It is typically made up of two (2) main hot gas, Hydrogen (H) and Helium (He).
The luminosity of a star refers to the total amount of light radiated by the star per second and it is measured in watts (w).
The apparent brightness of a star is a measure of the rate at which radiated energy from a star reaches an observer on Earth per square meter per second.
The apparent brightness of a star is measured in watts per square meter.
If the distance between us (humans) and a star is doubled, with everything else remaining the same, the luminosity remains the same, but the apparent brightness is decreased by a factor of four (4).
Some of the examples of stars are;
- Canopus.
- Sun (closest to the Earth)
- Betelgeuse.
- Antares.
- Vega.
Answer:
16÷8=2
Explanation:
if you run 8 mi an hour than in 16 mi you would have run 2 hours
Answer:
True
Explanation:
Pressure is defined as:
where
F is the magnitude of the force perpendicular to the surface
A is the surface
Therefore, pressure is inversely proportional to the area of the surface:
this means that, assuming that the forces in the two situations (which have same magnitude) are both applied perpendicular to the surface, the force exerted over the smaller area will exert a greater pressure. Hence, the statement"
<em>"A force acting over a large area will exert less pressure per square inch than the same force acting over a smaller area"</em>
is true.
Answer: 0.42 Amperes
Explanation:
Given that:
Current, I = ?
Electric charge Q = 100 coulomb
Time, T = 4.0 minutes
(The SI unit of time is seconds. so, convert 4.0 minutes to seconds)
If 1 minute = 60 seconds
4.0 minutes = 4.0 x 60 = 240 seconds
Since electric charge, Q = current x time
i.e Q = I x T
100 coulomb = I x 240 seconds
I = 100 coulomb / 240 seconds
I = 0.4167 Amperes (round to the nearest hundredth which is 0.42 amperes)
Thus, 0.42 Amperes of current flows in the circuit.
