Question

g the Isoradius Lines (optional, mathematical section) Qusestion 15: The HR Diagram is a log- og plot of the solar unilog L- log R*+ log T squation L-RT Use the boxed equations to argue that isoradius lines on the HR Diagram must be parallel lines. log L = log(R2T4 ) log L-log R +Alog T Question 16: Complete the table below. Then add the points to the following HR Diagram and use them to draw in the isoradius lines for 1, 10, and 100 solar radi.
