How much anice would equal 1 star anice?
Anise and star anise are two different things. There is no equivalence.
Is 1 over 100 plus 1 over 1000 1100?
No. It is .011 or 11 over 1000.
What is the slope intercept form of (011) with a slope of 1?
If you mean: (0, 11) then y = x+11
What is a fraction of a star?
there are 5 sides to a star, so its 1/5
What would come next equals 4 circles equals 2 triangles. 1 triangle equals 2 square. 1 square equals 2 star. 1 circle equals?
== == 1 circle = 2 stars
What would be brighter star than -1?
There is no such thing as a star with a magnitude brighter than -1. Negative magnitudes indicate brighter objects, with the most negative magnitudes corresponding to the brightest objects in the sky.
Star A is a first magnitude star. Star B is a sixth magnitude star. Which star is brighter and by how much?
A magnitude 1 star is 100 times brighter than a magnitude 6 star.A magnitude 1 star is 100 times brighter than a magnitude 6 star.A magnitude 1 star is 100 times brighter than a magnitude 6 star.A magnitude 1 star is 100 times brighter than a magnitude 6 star.
What magnitude indicates the brightest star -1 0 -0.11 plus 4?
It would be -1 the further Negative you go the brighter the star.
How would you calculate how much brighter a magnitude plus 4 star is than a magnitude plus 7 star?
To calculate the brightness difference between a magnitude +4 star and a magnitude +7 star, you can use the formula: Brightness ratio = 2.512 ^ (m1 - m2), where m1 is the magnitude of the brighter star (+4) and m2 is the magnitude of the fainter star (+7). Substituting the values into the formula, you would find that the magnitude +4 star is approximately 15.85 times brighter than the magnitude +7 star.
Which is what star would be the brightest magnitude 1st 2nd 3rd?
A star with a magnitude of 1 is the brightest, followed by a magnitude of 2 and then a magnitude of 3. The lower the magnitude, the brighter the star appears in the sky.
How many times brighter is a magnitude 1 star than a magnitude 2 star?
A magnitude 1 star is 2.5 times brighter than a magnitude 2 star. This is because the magnitude scale is logarithmic, with each whole number representing a brightness difference of about 2.5 times.
Is a star with magnitude -1 the brightest?
Lower magnitude numbers are brighter; negative numbers represent brighter objects than positive numbers.
Which star is brighter -2 or -3?
The way stellar magnitude works, a smaller number is associated with increased brightness. Since -3 < -2, a magnitude -3 star would be brighter than a magnitude -2 star. Each decrease in magnitude by 1 means in increase in brightness by a factor of about 2.5119. Equivalently, each decrease in magnitude by 5 means an increase in brightness by a factor of 100. Incidentally, the brightest star in the sky (Sirius) has an apparent magnitude of only about -1.5.
What is the magnitude of a star?
Its brightness. the bigger the number, the fainter. So, -1 is brighter than 5.
If star A is third magnitude and star B is fifth magnitude which is brighter and by what factor?
A 3rd magnitude star is brighter than a 5th magnitude star by a factor of 6.25.Each integer difference of magnitude represents a change in apparent brightness of 2.5 times. Hence, a 3rd magnitude star is 2.5 x 2.5 = 6.25 times brighter than a 5th magnitude star.(check related links)
What is the difference between a twelfth magnitude and fifteenth magnitude star?
The main difference is brightness: a twelfth magnitude star is brighter than a fifteenth magnitude star. Magnitude is a logarithmic scale, so each step in magnitude represents a difference in brightness of about 2.5 times. This means a twelfth magnitude star is approximately 12.5 times brighter than a fifteenth magnitude star.
Is a third magnitude star 10 times brighter then a 4th magnitude star?
Absolutely. When speaking of the brightness you see from earth, you are speaking of apparent magnitude. When considering the type of star, it's composition, stage, age, size, distance, etc., a star is also assigned an absolute magnitude, so the ranking of the star if seen from similar distances reveals the truth about a star. 3.26 light years away is the assumed distance in ranking stars. A star many times farther away than a second star may appear much brighter than the second star which is much closer, based partially on the various factors mentioned above. The lower the value for a magnitude, the brighter, or more correctly, the more luminous, a star. Thus, a 3.4 is brighter than a 5.1, for example. Long ago the scale was originally an arbitrary ranking based on certain stars that were considered to be the brightest. Since then, stars even brighter have been identified, thus the need to use values even less than zero. Only a handful of stars fall below zero in apparent magnitude. So then it is not significant where in the sky (in what constellation) a star lies, the magnitude value determines the brightness.
