How many stars can be seen in the night sky by an observer at any one time?
Space and AstronomyOther estimates place the number of stars visible to the eye alone – surrounding the entire Earth – at more like 5,000. At any given time, half of Earth is in daylight. So only half the estimated number – say, between 5,000 and 2,500 stars – would be visible from Earth’s night side. How many

Can you look at an annular eclipse?
Space and AstronomyThere is no danger to the eye in looking directly at a total solar eclipse. However; looking directly at the smallest part of a partial eclipse, including any annular eclipse, is very dangerous and can result in retinal damage. Can you observe an annular eclipse of the moon? There are no annular lunar eclipses because

Is a glide reflection Isometry?
Space and AstronomyA glide-reflection is an isometry that is the product of a reflection and a translation in the direction of the axis of the reflection. Theorem 4.1. Every isometry of the plane, other than the identity, is either a translation, a rotation, a reflection, or a glide-reflection. Is a reflection an isometry? A reflection in a

What is linear combination and span?
Space and AstronomyA linear combination is a sum of the scalar multiples of the elements in a basis set. The span of the basis set is the full list of linear combinations that can be created from the elements of that basis set multiplied by a set of scalars. What is a span in linear? The span

What is the day temperature on Mars?
Space and AstronomyWhy Mars is so cold In winter, near the poles, temperatures can get down to minus 195 degrees F (minus 125 degrees C). A summer day on Mars may get up to 70 degrees F (20 degrees C) near the equator, but at night the temperature can plummet to about minus 100 degrees F (minus

Does false position method always converge?
Space and AstronomyNote that, with false position, we are guaranteed that our range always spans the root, and convergence is assured, although the method is generally slower than the secant method. Does false position always converge? In the false position method, the latest estimate of the root replaces whichever of the original values yielded a function value

What does an ordered pair represent?
Space and AstronomyAn ordered pair is a composition of the x coordinate (abscissa) and the y coordinate (ordinate), having two values written in a fixed order within parentheses. It helps to locate a point on the Cartesian plane for better visual comprehension. What does an ordered pair represent on a graph? An ordered pair or coordinate is

Why is it important to use constraints when sketching?
Space and Astronomy1. Why is it important to use constraints when sketching with your 3D modeling program? Constraints are vital when sketching while using your 3D modeling program because they get rid of human error and allow you to place 2D sketches where they need to be. What is the purpose of a sketch constraints? Constraints limit

What is a 3 dimensional solid?
Space and AstronomyIn geometry, three-dimensional shapes or 3D shapes are solids that have three dimensions such as length, width and height. Whereas 2d shapes have only two dimensions, i.e. length and width. Examples of three-dimensional objects can be seen in our daily life such as cone-shaped ice cream, cubical box, a ball, etc.Aug 25, 2020 What is
