-
blue, yellow, red
Questão 12
Questão
Is it possible for a red star to emit more energy than a blue star?
Responda
-
No, because the red star has a lower temperature.
-
Yes, if the red star has a larger area.
-
Yes, if the red star has a larger wavelength of maximum intensity.
-
No, because red stars are less massive than blue stars.

Questão 14
Questão
What is the explanation for the pattern of granulation seen on the visible surface of the Sun?
Responda
-
The granules form the base of a circulation pattern that extends from the photosphere to the outer corona.
-
The granules are regions of nuclear energy generation in the Sun
-
Each granule contains a strong magnetic field, which compresses and heats the gas underneath it.
-
The granules are the tops of hot gases that have risen from the Sun's convective Zone

Responda
-
hot material rising to the photosphere from below
-
cool material falling from the photosphere to the regions below
-
material that is fainter and hotter than its surroundings
-
material that is brighter and cooler than its surroundings
