What is the apparent magnitude of the brightest star in the big dipper?

+1.77

Explanation:

Big dipper is the  asterism made of seven bright stars in Ursa Major constellation. An asterism a pattern formed by joining the bright stars in the night sky. On the other hand, whole night sky is divided into 88 areas called constellations. These asterisms are used to identify the constellations.

The brightest star of the big dipper is Alioth which is the 32nd brightest star in the night sky. Its apparent magnitude is +1.77.

force is based upon mass and acceleration.the statement is not always true.

it can be explained from newton's second law of motion.

as per newton's second law of motion the rate of change of momentum is directly proportional to the applied force and takes place along the direction of force.

mathematically it can be written as -

                                              ⇒      

here   k is the proportionality constant whose value is 1.

                                                            [a is the acceleration=dv/dt]

hence we see that force not only depends on mass and acceleration but also on velocity and rate of change of mass. force f will depend on mass and acceleration only when mass is constant.

hence the statement that force is based upon mass and acceleration is false.
