Question

question 6 1 pts an astronomer observes a star that has a very low apparent magnitude (appears dim) but a very high absolute brightness. what can be concluded about this star? it must be very far away from earth. it must be very close to the earth. it must be a very small and cool star. it must be a yellow star like our sun.

Explanation:

Apparent magnitude is how bright a star appears from Earth, affected by distance. Absolute brightness is the star's actual brightness. A star with low apparent magnitude (dim - looking) but high absolute brightness is likely far away, as its light has dimmed over the long distance to Earth.

Answer:

It must be very far away from Earth.
