- The RR Lyrae stars in a globular cluster have apparent magnitudes of 14. Assuming an absolute visual magnitude of 0.5, calculate how far away is the cluster (in parsecs)? (Hint: Use the Magnitude-Distance Formula: ?=10(??−??+55))using the center-of-mass equations or the Carter of Mass Calculator (under Binary-Star Basics, abova), you will investigate a specific binary star system. Assume that Star 1 has m, 3.2 solar masses, Star 2 has m,-0.9 solar masses, and the total separation of the two (R) is 34 All (One AU is Earth's average distance from the Sun) (2) What is the distance, d.
