expected lifetimes and their final endpoints once they run out of fuel.
a. In Topic 10 (Part 4, Activity 4.1), you were asked to plot a graph of temperature (on the horizontal axis)
against frequency (on the vertical axis) for the position of the peak in the continuous black-body emission
spectrum, based on the spectra emitted by seven different star types: O, B, A, F, G, K and M. Your graph
should have had a best-fit line plotted through the data points, and could have been hand-drawn or
computer-generated.
i. Include an appropriately titled and labelled table of the data you obtained in Activity 4.1, i.e. the
data you used to plot your graph.
(3 marks)
ii. Copy and paste your graph from Activity 4.1 into your TMA answer. Ensure you show the best-fit
straight line for the data on your graph.
Hint: Be sure to check that all required aspects of a well-formatted graph are included in your
answer, and confirm that you have plotted frequency on the vertical axis and temperature on the
horizontal axis.
