What are two factors that determine the brightness of a star?
distance from the sun and the age of the star
What two factors affect a planets revolution?
Two factors that affect a planets revolution are distance from the sun and size.
Why do some stars appear bigger and brighter than others?
A stars brightness depends on two factors; its distance from us and its actual brightness (absolute magnitude). The actual brightness of a star depends on various factors, such as its mass, its temperature and its age.Consider two stars of the same actual brightness (absolute magnitude) - if one of them is much closer, then is will be brighter than the further one. It will appear brighter, even though it would be the same side by side - it can be said to be apparently brighter (higher apparent magnitude) due to its distance.A:They appear bigger and brighter because they really are bigger and brighter, but even if they are not bigger and brighter it could be because they are closer.
What are the two ways stars are classified?
Two ways are by temperature and brightness
How does the distance and size of a star impact its brightness?
If two stars have the same size and brightness, but one is further away, it will appear dimmer. The brightness of a star is inversely proportionate to the square of its distance. In other words, a star ten light years away will be four times dimmer than one just as bright (absolute magnitude) that is only five light years away. Larger stars also tend to be brighter, though most of the really big stars are red giants.
What two factor affect a stars apparent brightness?
Two factors that affect a star's apparent brightness are: 1.) The distance between the Earth and the star 2.) The absolute magnitude (the actual brightness) of the star Hope that helps :P
