Question 3: You are an astronomer and are searching for planets in other stellar systems for which conditions on the surface of the planets are similar to the Earth. You have identified a candidate star, Tycho1601 that you know has same size to the Sun but 1.4 times the surface temperature of the Sun (our Sun). Around that star there are four planets rotating around it. You are about to invest valuable telescope time in studying the individual planets which one you start with? A) Planet TychoA located at a distance that is half the distance between our Earth and our

Stellar evolution

We may see thousands of stars in the dark sky. Our universe consists of billions of stars. Stars may appear tiny to us but they are huge balls of gasses. Sun is a star of average size. Some stars are even a thousand times larger than the sun. The stars do not exist forever they have a certain lifetime. The life span of the sun is about 10 billion years. The star undergoes various changes during its lifetime, this process is called stellar evolution. The structure of the sun-like star is shown below.

Red Shift

It is an astronomical phenomenon. In this phenomenon, increase in wavelength with corresponding decrease in photon energy and frequency of radiation of light. It is the displacement of spectrum of any kind of astronomical object to the longer wavelengths (red) side.

y(t)=y0+vy0t-0.5gt2 1) Using algebra shows that a meteor, initially at rest(vy0=0) will take about 20 minutes to fall from an altitudeof 7,000 km as shown in the diagram to the right. Note thatthe change in y is negative and you will need to convert kminto meters for the units to work out correctly. The calculation from problem 1) is incorrect though. Thereason being that acceleration is not constant. Theacceleration due to gravity varies with height. When near thesurface of the Earth objects accelerate at g = 9.8 m/s2 however when the meteor is further away from the Earth it’sthe acceleration is less. The meteors acceleration is actually given by the formula. ay=-G(M/r2)
The Earth is about 12800 (1.28 x 104) km in diameter. If you drew the Earth to scale on your model (model is attatched here) how many centimeters across would the dot measure?

Procedure Table 11.1 presents Djup and Pday for the major Jovian satellites. First use these data and the equation above to calculate Jupiter’s mass in kilograms (kg). Enter your results in the table for each satellite. Next calculate the average Jupiter mass (Mjup, av) and enter the result in the table. Finally, calculate the percent difference (PD) using Mjup, av and the standard value for Jupiter’s mass (1.9 X 1027 kg). In the calculation of PD you can ignore 1027 because it will appear in both numerator and denominator. ________________________________________________________ Table 11.1 Calculated values for Jupiter’s Mass Satellite Djup Pday Mjup Io 2.95 1.77 Europa 4.69 3.55 Ganymede 7.50 7.15 Callisto 13.15 16.7 __________________________________________________________ Average Jupiter Mass = Percent Difference =
