QUESTION 36 What does the apparent magnitude of a star tell us about that star? its mass how bright it appears from Earth its radius how much energy it is emitting QUESTION 37 What is the reason sunspots appear darker than surrounding regions on the Sun's surface? They actually are fairly bright, but appear dark against the even brighter background of the surrounding photosphere. They are too cold to emit any visible light. They...

choose correct answer. no explanation needed
QUESTION 10 How do astrophysicists account for neutrino emission from the Sun? Solar flares create neutrinos with very energetic magnetic fields. Convection releases neutrinos, which random walk through the radiation zone. Fission in the Sun's core creates neutrinos when protons turn into neutrons. The annihilation of positrons and electrons in the core produces neutrinos. Fusion in the Sun's core creates neutrinos when protons turn into neutrons, QUESTION 11 How does the interstellar medium impact...
