The power radiated by a star and its mass ma are related by `(P)/(P_(0))=((m)/(M_(0)))^(7//2)` where `P_(0)` and `M_(0)` are power radiated by the Sun and mass of the Sun respectively. Assume that the fraction of mass lost by the star since its birth is `alpha(ltlt1)`. Calculate the age of the star in terms of `alpha,M_(0)P` and `P_(0)`. |
Answer» Correct Answer - `(alphaM_(0)c^(2))/(p_(0)^(2//7)P^(5//7))` |
