9) Consider the following statement made by a student regarding a star's temperature and
its corresponding absorption line spectrum
Student: If I am looking at a star's absorption line spectrum and see that it has a lot of
lines at the blue end Of the spectrum, then the star must be hot because the blue lines are higher energy lines.
Do you agree or disagree with this student? Explain your reasoning and support your
answer by citing evidence from the absorption line spectra given for Stars A-G.
