What is the number used to multiply the lengths of a figure to make a larger or smaller similar image?

The number used to multiply the lengths of a figure to create a larger or smaller similar image is called the scale factor. It is a ratio that represents the proportional relationship between the corresponding sides of two similar figures.


How are the area and volume each affected if the side length is doubled and Cubed?

If the side length of a cube is doubled, the area of each face increases by a factor of four, since area is proportional to the square of the side length (A = s²). Therefore, the total surface area increases by a factor of four as well. When the side length is cubed, the volume increases by a factor of eight, since volume is proportional to the cube of the side length (V = s³). Thus, doubling the side length results in a surface area that is four times greater and a volume that is eight times greater.


How do size temperature and distance affect a star's magnitude or luminousity?

A star's real luminosity is proportional to the the square of its diameter, and more or less proportional to the fourth power of its absolute temperature. The star's apparent luminosity is proportional to its real luminosity. It is also inversely proportional to the square of the distance.
