What is the apparent brightness of a star?

Abasketball star covers 2.65 m horizontally in a jump to dunk the ball. his motion through space can be modeled precisely as that of a particle at his center of mass. his center of mass is at elevation 1.02 m when he leaves the floor. it reaches a maximum height of 1.90 m above the floor and is at elevation 0.910 m when he touches down again. (a) determine his time of flight (his "hang time"). (b) determine his horizontal velocity at the instant of takeoff. (c) determine his vertical velocity at the instant of takeoff. (d) determine his takeoff angle. (e) for comparison, determine the hang time of a whitetail deer making a jump with center-of-mass elevations yi = 1.20 m, ymax = 2.45 m, and yf = 0.750 m.

If the sun were to become a black hole, what would happen to earth? it is impossible to know the results. it would be sucked in very rapidly. it would continue in the same orbit. it would be sucked in very slowly. 3. which type of radiation us map the galaxy? visible light infrared 21 cm radio waves ultraviolet 4. henrietta leavitt found that the brighter appearing cepheids always had longer periods of light variation. this is an expression of what? period-luminosity relation luminosity function hertzsprung-russell diagram mass-luminosity relation 5. what is the surface or boundary of a black hole called? quasar active galaxy event horizon seyfert point 6. edwin hubble's discovery of a cepheid variable in the andromeda nebula led him to conclude that the nebula was what? a distant galaxy composed of hydrogen a supernova remnant the birthplace of stars 7. earth is near the center of the milky way galaxy. true false 8. how long does it take the sun to revolve around the center of the galaxy? two hundred thousand years two hundred million years two hundred years two hundred billion years

Could someone explain how to do this? i'm kind of confused.
