light and matter begin date: 9/2/2025 12:01:00 am due date: 9/5/2025 11:59:00 pm end date: 9/8/2025 11:59:00 pm problem 9 two stars are giving off electromagnetic radiation. the hotter star will will give off a largely continuous spectrum of waves. will radiate energy at more than one wavelength. give off more radiation (per unit area) at all wavelengths. do all of these things. will have a higher average frequency of radiation. hints: 0% deduction per hint. hints remaining: 1 feedback: 0% deduction per feedback. 4 submission(s) remaining

Explanation:

According to the Stefan - Boltzmann law and Wien's displacement law, a hotter star emits more radiation per unit area at all wavelengths (Stefan - Boltzmann law), radiates energy at multiple wavelengths and has a continuous spectrum, and also has a higher average frequency of radiation (Wien's displacement law as higher temperature corresponds to shorter wavelength and higher frequency).

Answer:

do all of these things.
