Question

(a) The colour temperature can be determined from two magnitudes corresponding to
two different wavelengths. Show that:
7000 K
Te
(B-V)+0.47
The wavelengths ofthe B and V bands are 440 nm and 548 nm, respectively, and we
assume that B=V for stars of the spectral class A0, the colour temperature of which
is about 15000 K°. (Take constant value - 0.73 and e-2.718).

Note that a “gray” object under a red light can reflect the same light as a “red” object under white light. If we want our color perception to remain constant under different lighting conditions, should we base perceived color on (circle one) 1) the spectrum of light reaching the eye from the object (the signal)? or X the percent of light the object reflects at different wavelengths (the reflectance)

The images above show real X ray data of the Cassiopeia A supernova remnant and a spectrum extracted from that data--you can see several emission lines including the silicon line near 6.6 angstroms (0.66 nm). If the emission line created by silicon normally has a wavelength of 0.6648 nm (nanometers), but is measured in the spectrum to have a wavelength of 0.6599 nm, how fast is the gas moving?
Q1
You want to create a telescope with a resolving powe of 0.100 arc seconds at a wavelength of 550 nm. Wha diameter (in m) do you need? If you want to increase the light gathering power by a factor of 10, by what factor does the diameter need to increase? What would the new resolving power be (in arc seconds)?
