What is the suns absolute magnitude from earth?
You cannot ask for an absolute magnitude and specify the distance, as the absolute magnitude is derived from a set distance of 32.616 light years.At that distance, the absolute magnitude of the Sun is +4.83From Earth the apparent magnitude -26.74
What would happen to the magnitude of the gravitational force between the suns and earth if earth were placed in Pluto's orbit?
The magnitude of the force would decrease greatly.
What is the magnitude of a star if all stars were the same distance from earth?
Absolute magnitude
Diameter of the sun while the distance of the earth is 150000000?
The distance from the earth to the Sun has a negligable effect on the Suns diameter.
Which measure is not considered when measuring absolute magnitude?
distance from earth
What does apparent magnitude depend upon?
apparent magnitude (brightness of a star when viewed from Earth) depends on the size of the star, how hot it is, and its distance from Earth
How big is the suns size relate to the earth?
The Sun is 329,330 times larger than the earth with a magnitude of 1,391,780 Km with earth only being 12,756.28Km large
How many suns fit between the earth and the sun?
The Earths orbital distance from the sun is 149,597,890km (92,955,820 miles) on average, enough to fit 107 more suns between the suns surface and Earth.
Given that the distance from Earth to Mars is 34580000 miles what is the order of magnitude of this distance?
7
What is a stars brightness as if it were a standard distance?
Theres `Absolute Magnitude` which is the brightness of a star at a set distance. Then there is `Apparent Magnitude` which is the apparent brightness from earth, regardless of distance.
Is a star's absolute magnitude dependent on its distance from the observer?
Absolute magnitude is based on an observer being at the same distance from any star.Apparent magnitude is based on the brightness of a star from Earth without any atmosphere.
How does apparent magnitude of a star differ from absolute magnitude?
Apparent magnitude is the brightness as observed from earth, while absolute magnitude is the brightness of a star at a set distance. The apparent magnitude considers the stars actual brightness as well as it's distance from us, but absolute magnitude takes the distance factor out so that star brightnesses can be directly compared.
