What word means the same as luminosity?
Caution
What describes the relationship between the luminosity of two stars that have the same radius?
The star that is hotter will have a higher luminosity.
What correctly describes the relationship between the luminosity of two stars that have the same radius?
The star that is hotter will have a higher luminosity.
Does apparent magnitude refer to real luminosity?
No. Apparent magnitude (or luminosity) means how bright a star (or other object) looks to us; absolute magnitude (or luminosity) refers to how bright it really is.
Why would two stars have different sizes and tempertes but same luminosity?
The luminosity depends on what stage of its life cycle the star is in. Also, the apparent luminosity depends on the distance from earth.
If the distance between us and a star is doubled with everything else remaining the same the luminosity?
The luminosity of the star would decrease by a factor of four. Luminosity is directly proportional to the inverse square of the distance from the star. So, if the distance is doubled, the luminosity decreases by a factor of 2^2 = 4.
What is the luminosity of gamma ceti?
It is a triple star system. Therefore every single star has different luminosity. However, as a whole the system is seen from earth at an appereant magnitude of 3.47, which means only %6 luminosity of the star vega.
How does the luminosity of a blackbody vary with its surface temperature?
Both the absorption and the luminosity of a blackbody in equilibrium increase in magnitude with increasing temperature, and the spectral distribution of the luminosity increases in frequency (decreases in wavelength).
What is a sentence with luminosity in it?
I was enthralled by the luminosity of the deep water jellyfish.
How does luminosity affect the CHZ?
Luminosity affects the habitable zone (CHZ) by determining the distance at which a planet would need to be from a star to have the right temperature for liquid water to exist on its surface. Stars with higher luminosity would have habitable zones farther out, while stars with lower luminosity would have habitable zones closer in. This means that the size and location of the CHZ around a star depend on its luminosity.
What is the luminosity of the sun?
The luminosity of the Sun is approximately 3.8 x 10^26 watts, which means it is emitting this amount of energy every second. This energy output is generated through nuclear fusion reactions in the Sun's core.
What is the root word for the word luminosity?
The root word is lum. It means light or bright.
