Apparent movement of a star used to measure its distance from earth?
The absolute magnitude of a star is the amount of light received by earth?
What is an apparent magnitude?
Earth's apparent magnitude would depend on where it is viewed from. For instance, from Saturn, the apparent magnitude is 1.45. From Mars is would be somewhat higher.
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 is earth's magnitude?
Magnitude is a measure of how bright an object is in the sky when we view it. As we are on the Earth this obviously doesn't apply. However the Earth as seen from the Sun would be around magnitude -4. If you mean how reflective is the Earth (its albedo) then it is currently around 0.3
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
This is the amount of starlight received on earth?
The amount of starlight received on Earth is called apparent magnitude. This is the measurement of how bright the stars appear from Earth.

How is mars gravitational force different from earth?
Only in its magnitude ... about 38% of its magnitude on Earth.
What is the ultimate source of earth winds?
differences in the amount of heat received at different regions of the Earth
Do bathroom scales measure mass or force?
weight It measures the magnitude of the gravitational force that attracts you toward the center of the Earth. It's not necessary to measure the magnitude of the force that attracts the Earth toward the center of you. Not only don't you care about that one, but we know that it's exactly the same as the first one.
