We have
M1=3m
R1=72
M2=8m
R2=6
Record the luminosities of each star
L1=4πR12σT14
L2=4πR22σT24
We apply the Pogson formula
L1L2=2.512M1−M2
Substitute luminosities
4πR12σT144πR22σT24=2.512M1−M2
Simplify the expression
R12T14R22T24=2.5123−8
R12T14R22T24=2.512−5=0.01
Where will we write
T1T2=40.01⋅R22R12
T1T2=40.01⋅62722=40.01⋅144=1.095
