Question 17
How much time each year does the Sun spend in front of a constellation that is NOT a Zodiac constellation?
O half the time
O all the time; the Sun is never in front of a Zodiac constellation
O all winter but not at all in the summer
O all summer but not at all in the winter
O none
Question 18
Object A has a temperature of 5000K while object B's temperature is 500K. Which object has its blackbody spectrum peak at a shorter wavelength?
O Object A in the winter and Object B in the summer
O Object A in the summer and Object B in the winter
O Both have the same peak wavelength
O Object A
O Object B

Answer

  1. Question 17: The Sun spends half the time each year in front of a constellation that is NOT a Zodiac constellation.

  2. Question 18: According to Wien's Law, the peak wavelength is inversely proportional to the temperature. Therefore, Object A has its blackbody spectrum peak at a shorter wavelength.
