Astronomers believe that the radius of a variable star increases and decreases with the brightness of the star. suppose a variable star has an average radius of 20 million miles and changes by a maximum of 1.4 million miles from this average during a single pulsation, and that the time between periods of maximum brightness is 5.8 days. find an equation that describes the radius of this star as a function of time. (let r be the radius in millions of miles and let t be the time in days. assume that when t = 0 the radius is 20 million miles and increasing.)

Amichelson interferometer operating at a 600 nm wavelength has a 3.02-cm-long glass cell in one arm. to begin, the air is pumped out of the cell and mirror m2 is adjusted to produce a bright spot at the center of the interference pattern. then a valve is opened and air is slowly admitted into the cell. the index of refraction of air at 1.00 atm pressure is 1.00028.how many bright-dark-bright fringe shifts are observed as the cell fills with air?
