The closer the star is to the Earth the brighter it appears in the sky.G. Stars that are larger appear brighter in the sky as seen from Earth.H. A star's brightness is not only dependent on its distance from Earth.I. Alpha Centauri is second closest so it should be the second brightest.

From the above table, the nearest and the brightest star is the Sun. The dimmest star is Bernard's…

Eratosthenes of Cyrene measured a solar shadow at about 7.2o from the perpendicular in a well at Alexandria, Egypt, but no solar shadow (0o from the perpendicular) in a well at Syene, Egypt, 490 miles to the south, at midday on the summer solstice. From these measurements, he was able to calculate: that the circumference of the Earth is about 73,500 miles that the circumference of the Earth is about 61,250 miles that the circumference of the Earth is about 49,000 miles that the circumference of the Earth is about 36,750 miles E. that the circumference of the Earth is about 24,500 miles

the moons position among the stars was observed at moonrise. six hours and 12 min later the moon happened to be exactly at the zenith. its position among the stars by them had shifted to the east by 148 arcmin. on the other hand the moons orbital motion alone would cause it to move eastward on the celestial sphere at the rate of 33 arcmin/hr. find the distance to the moon. compare your results with the average value of the distance to the moon

Figure 1. Ultraviolet Radiation Index across the World. The colors on this map of the world represent Ultraviolet (UV) Index values on a particular day in September 2015. The UV Index is a standardized scale of UV radiation intensity running from 0 (least intense) to 18 (most intense). The y-axis values are degrees of latitude, which range from the equator (0°) to the poles (90° north and −90° south). The x-axis values are degrees of longitude, which range from the prime meridian (0°) to the antemeridian (180° east and −180° west). (Source: European Space Agency,http://www.temis.nl/uvradiati on/UVindex.html.) I. Examine Figure 1 above and answer Questions 1–6. 1. Describe the relationship between the UV Index (the colored bar in Figure 1) and latitude (y-axis). 2. How do you explain the relationship between the UV Index and latitude? (In other words, why does UV intensity change with latitude?) 3. Find your approximate location on the map. What is the primary UV…
