- Sirius is the brightest star in the sky (but is located in the Southern hemisphere). It has a luminosity of 25.4 LSun and is 2.67 parsec away (1 parsec= 3.086 ×1016 m). What flux is received on Earth from Sirius? How manytimes smaller is this than the flux from the Sun?Which star is a white supergiant star that is brighter and hotter than the Sun?(Astronomy) Hyades Cluster Age. This chapter states that the Hyades cluster is 650 million years old. What is the age of the cluster based on highest-mass star in the cluster that is still on the main sequence? (Hint: the figure and the table below may be helpful.)
- A star has a peak output at 440 nm and has a luminosity of 3 solar luminosities. What is its radius? (LS=3.826 X 1026 J/s)We will take a moment to compare how brightly a white dwarf star shines compared to a red giant star. For the sake of this problem, let's assume a white dwarf has a temperature around 10,000 K and a red giant has a temperature around 5,000 K. As for their stellar radiatin, the white dwarf has a radius about 1/100th that of the Sun, and a red giant has a radius around 100 times larger than the Sun. With this in mind, how does the luminosity of a red giant star compare to that of a white dwarf (Hint: do not try to enter all of these numbers into the luminosity equation {it won't go well}; instead, remember that you are only interested in the ratio between the two, so all common units and components can be divided out)? Please enter your answer in terms of the luminosity of the red giant divided by the luminosity of the white dwarf and round to two significant figures. Also, please avoid using commas in your answer.Two stars-A and B, of luminosities 0.5 and 4.5 times the observed to have the luminosity of the Sun, respectively-are same apparent brightness. Which star is more distant, and how much farther away is it than the other?
- Calculate the luminosity of the star with an apparent magnitude of 2. Given the Sun has an apparent magnitude of -26.57 and 3.9 × 1026 W luminosity.A red giant star has a temperature of 3900 K and a luminosity of 13600 LSun. How many times bigger is this star than the Sun? Hint: You need the surface temperature of the sun for this problem. Use the value in the book, 5800K.A certain star has a temperature twice that of the Sun and a luminosity 64 times greater than the solar value. What is its radius, in solar units?

What are the (B − V) colors of the two stars?Consider two stars on the main sequence, A and B. Star A has a mass of 4 M⊙. Star B has a mass of 0.8 M⊙. By what factor is the luminosity of star A greater than the luminosity of star B?
