The brightness is very similar to the temperature, the brightness relies on the temperature
What else can I help you with?
Why is possible to relate the temperature of a star to its luminosty or brightness?
By multiple observations it was noted that that correlation was true.
What does an H-R diagram relate a star's temperature to?
The temperature is displayed along the horizontal axis while the vertical axis is the star's absolute magnitude. So the HR diagram is a scatter diagram relating temperature and brightness, and eah star occupies one point.
IN main sequence stars what is the relationship between brightness and temperature?
Brightness tells you the temperature and mostly temperature would tell the brightness of the star that we are talking about.
What does an h-r diagram relate a stars temperature to?
The temperature is displayed along the horizontal axis while the vertical axis is the star's absolute magnitude. So the HR diagram is a scatter diagram relating temperature and brightness, and eah star occupies one point.
What location on the graph best represents a star with average brightness and temperature?
Stars' brightness and temperature are typically represented on a Hertzsprung-Russell (H-R) diagram. An average star like the Sun would be located on the "Main Sequence" portion of the graph, where brightness increases as temperature increases.
Who discovered the relationship between a star brightness and temperature?
Hertzsprung and Russell.
Who discovered the relationship between the star temperature and brightness?
Hertzsprung and Russell.
What factors determine a stars brightness seen from earth?
Distance from Earth, size of star, and temperature of star.
What factors determine a stars brightness as seen from earth?
Distance from Earth, size of star, and temperature of star.
What is the main sequence star's temperature most closely related to?
A main sequence star's temperature is most closely related to its color and brightness.
If you know the surface temperature anf brightness of a star then you can find?
You find its size.
Which changes would changes would correspond to a decrease in a star's absolute brightness?
A decrease in a star's absolute brightness could be caused by the star moving farther away from Earth, interstellar dust blocking some of its light, or a decrease in the star's temperature. All of these factors would result in less light reaching Earth, causing a decrease in the star's apparent brightness.
