A pair of stars, Star C and Star D, have been observed. We see, by very close examination of the spectrum of each, that they are exactly the same type of star (same temperature, mass, radius, luminosity, etc.), but the amount of light that we get from Star D is 144 times as much as what we receive from Star C. Star D has been found to have a distance of 10 lightyears. As before, set up a ratio to calculate the distance of Star C.
q1- How distant is Star C?
12 lightyears
24 lightyears
42 lightyears
100 lightyears
120 lightyears
144 lightyears
Star A is a Type 1 Cepheid with a period of 2 days, and has a known distance of 650 lightyears. Star B is a Type 2 Cepheid with a period of 100 days.
Q2: The luminosity of star A is:
0.001 times the luminosity of the Sun
the same luminosity as the Sun
100 times the luminosity of the Sun
1,000 times the luminosity of the Sun
10,000 times the luminosity of the Sun
Q3: The luminosity of star B is:
0.001 times the luminosity of the Sun
the same luminosity as the Sun
100 times the luminosity of the Sun
1,000 times the luminosity of the Sun
10,000 times the luminosity of the Sun

A23 kg log of wood begins from rest, 300 m up a sluice (a water track used to transport logs, think of it as an inclined plane with negligible friction) inclined at 20° to the horizontal. after it reaches the flat waterway at the bottom it collides elastically with a 100 kg block of wood initially at rest near the base of the incline. (a) how long does it take the 23 kg log to travel down the incline? (b) what is the speed of the 23 kg log at the bottom of the incline? (c) what are the velocities of both blocks of wood after the collision? (d) what is the total kinetic energy before the collision? (e) what is the kinetic energy of the 23 kg log after the collision? (f) what is the kinetic energy of the 100 kg block of wood after the collision? (g) what is the total kinetic energy after the collision? (h) compare the total initial and total final kinetic energies. is this consistent with what you would expect for elastic collisions? explain!
