Question

what could an astronomer deduce if they know the type of light being emitted by a star? what dust that surrounds it elements that it absorbs its distance from the sun its distance from the earth

Explanation:

Each element has a unique spectral - fingerprint in the light it absorbs or emits. By analyzing the type of light (spectrum) emitted by a star, astronomers can identify the elements that the star absorbs.
