1 Day 11: Stars Review of Test Ar4cle Sharing Reading/Mastering Astronomy Ques4ons Lecture on Spectral Type Break Lecture on Hertzsprung- Russell Diagram L- T: H- R Diagram, p 117 Summary
2 Test Ques4ons Median Grade: 82/100 High Score: 99/100
3 Did the midterm do a good job of tes4ng informa4on we emphasized in class? A. Very much so either I knew the informa4on or I should have known it B. PreVy good it seemed fairly appropriate to the class C. Somewhat some of the ques4ons were out of ley field but it mostly worked D. Not so much some of it I recognized but a lot I can t remember covering E. (all colors) Not at all. What were you thinking?

12 Which Hydrogen Atom will not produce absorp4on lines? A. Hydrogen atom with one electron in ground energy level B. Hydrogen atom with one electron in second energy level C. Hydrogen atom with two electrons, one in ground energy level and one in second energy level D. Ionized hydrogen (Hydrogen atom with no electrons)
13 Which Hydrogen Atom will not produce absorp4on lines? A. Hydrogen atom with one electron in ground energy level B. Hydrogen atom with one electron in second energy level C. Hydrogen atom with two electrons, one in ground energy level and one in second energy level D. Ionized hydrogen (Hydrogen atom with no electrons)
14 What type of hydrogen gas is least likely to produce absorp4on lines? A. Extremely hot hydrogen gas B. Warm hydrogen gas C. Cold hydrogen gas D. Hydrogen gas in a strong magne4c field
15 What type of hydrogen gas is least likely to produce absorp4on lines? A. Extremely hot hydrogen gas B. Warm hydrogen gas C. Cold hydrogen gas D. Hydrogen gas in a strong magne4c field
16 Hydrogen is ionized Hydrogen is not ionized. Many electrons in 2 nd energy level Hydrogen is not ionized. All electrons in ground energy level
17 Hydrogen lines in visible part of the spectrum are produced by atoms star4ng at the second energy level
18 What gas will produce the most hydrogen absorp4on lines in the visible part of the spectrum? A. Extremely hot gas: all hydrogen is ionized B. Fairly hot gas: all hydrogen electrons in very high energy levels C. Warm gas: many hydrogen electrons in second energy level D. Cold gas: all hydrogen electrons in ground energy level
19 What gas will produce the most hydrogen absorp4on lines in the visible part of the spectrum? A. Extremely hot gas: all hydrogen is ionized B. Fairly hot gas: all hydrogen electrons in very high energy levels C. Warm gas: many hydrogen electrons in second energy level D. Cold gas: all hydrogen electrons in ground energy level
20 Hydrogen is ionized Hydrogen is not ionized. Many electrons in 2 nd energy level Hydrogen is not ionized. All electrons in ground energy level
21 Spectral Type Oh Be Fine Girl/Guy Kiss Me
22 Stellar Absorp4on Lines Require gas of a certain element of just the right temperature to be produced Too hot, and the gas of that element is ionized Too cold, and electrons are all in ground level so they can only produce lines for energy transi4ons star4ng at ground We can, therefore, use lines to tell us stellar temperatures

45 Lalande is a nearby star half the mass of the Sun. It is in gravita4onal equilibrium (i.e., it is neither expanding nor contrac4ng). What force supports Lalande and keeps it from collapsing in on itself? What force binds Lalande together and keeps it from exploding outward? How does the strength of this force for Lalande compare to the strength of this same force for the Sun? What is the net force this star is experiencing? How does the temperature at the center of Lalande compare to the temperature at the center of the Sun? How does the rate of fusion at the center of Lalande compare to the rate of fusion at the center of the Sun?
