The brightness of a star as observed from Earth decreases with distance due to the inverse square law, meaning that as the distance doubles, the observed brightness is reduced to a quarter. Additionally, a star's apparent size, or angular diameter, diminishes with increased distance, making it appear smaller even though its actual size remains unchanged. Thus, a distant star can be much larger than a nearby star, but it may appear fainter and smaller due to the vast distance separating them.
The apparent brightness of a star is determined by its luminosity (true brightness), distance from Earth, and any intervening dust or gas that may absorb or scatter its light. These factors affect how bright a star appears in the night sky to an observer on Earth.
1: The size of the planet.2: The planet's distance from the Sun.3: The "albedo" of the planet (the percentage of the Sun's light it reflects).If you mean how bright the planet appears to us on Earth, then the distance from Earth is obviously very important.
The apparent brightness of a star is primarily affected by its intrinsic luminosity, distance from Earth, and any interstellar material that may dim its light. However, the color of the star does not directly affect its apparent brightness; it relates more to the star's temperature and stage of life rather than how bright it appears from our perspective. Thus, while color can indicate other properties of the star, it does not influence its apparent brightness.
How old a star is.
For the same real brightness, at a larger distance it would look less bright. On the other hand, you may have two stars that look like they are the same brightness, but one might be million times brighter (in real brightness) than the other - which would be compensated by the fact that the brighter star is a thousand times farther away.
The 3 factors that affect a star's brightness as viewed from earth, are: The star's age, distance from earth, and actual magnitude (scale a star's brightness is measured in).

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

distance from the sun and the age of the star
No. Star color is caused by factors such as size and temperature. However, apparent magnitude (brightness) IS partially caused by distance.
it depends upon 3 factors,1-the distance from the earth, 2-size of star and 3-age of the star.
