If an open cluster contains 350 stars and is 48 pc in diameter, what is the average distance between the stars? On average what, share of the volume of the cluster surrounds each star?
Cluster Sizes. An open cluster is a collection of 10 to 1000 stars in a region about 25 pc in diameter. About how far apart are the stars in an open cluster in units of pc? (Hints: What share of the cluster's volume belongs to a single 4 Tr. Use the cited value for the maximum number of stars in your calculation.) star? The volume of a sphere is pc.
Match each characteristic below of a one-solar-mass star to its appropriate phase. Answer M for Main-sequence Star, or P for Protostar. If the first is M and the rest P, enterMPPPPPP).

Can you please help with Part 2 of 2? Thank you.
Another explanation for the Universe is the Steady State Hypothesis. The Steady State Hypothesis says that the Universe has always existed and is infinite in extent. Which of the following supports the Big Bang Theory and which supports the Steady State Model. (Select B-Big Bang Theory, S-Steady State Model, If the first is B and the rest S, enter BSSSSS). A) An observation that some globular clusters show M-type stars that have evolved off the main sequence. B) The measurement of redshifts that show galaxies appear to be moving away from each other and the Universe is expanding. C) A measurement that shows the density of the Universe is close to the critical density. D) The measurement of the microwave background radiation. E) Observing that galaxies at very large distances look identical to those in the nearby universe.

How many years? Thank you!
The figure above shows a track on the H-R diagram corresponding to the evolution of a star like the one you’ve just considered. Six stages are numbered. Six stages of stellar evolution are listed below – for each stage, write the number corresponding to its position on the diagram (four of these stages are the same stages you considered in the first part of this tutorial). Horizontal branch: Asymptotic giant branch: White dwarf: Main sequence: Planetary nebula: Red giant branch: What is the approximate mass of this star, in solar masses? Explain how you can tell.
