An oil tanker has a mass of to, 40000 tonnes. It is 500m long and 40m wide. What is the mininum depth of harbor it requires?​

We can infer that star y is closer but other factors must be considered include the heat of the star, the mass, and the brightness of the star. even though star x seems dimmer it may just be less bright or contains less heat.

Stars are born within the clouds of dust and scattered throughout most galaxies. a familiar example of such as a dust cloud is the orion nebula. turbulence deep within these clouds gives rise to knots with sufficient mass that the gas and dust can begin to collapse under its own gravitational attraction. as the cloud collapses, the material at the center begins to heat up. known as a protostar, it is this hot core at the heart of the collapsing cloud that will one day become a star. three-dimensional computer models of star formation predict that the spinning clouds of collapsing gas and dust may break up into two or three blobs; this would explain why the majority the stars in the milky way are paired or in groups of multiple stars.therefor, i would say the answer is: dust and gases contract.i hope this ! < 3
