Please solve the problem showing clearsteps not just the answer. Thank you.
An analysis of the spectrum of an eclipsing binary with a period of P=7.5 years shows that the maximum Doppler shift of the hydrogen Balmer Ha line (with wavelength 656.281mm) is AX2 0.063mm for the smaller member and AX1 0.0049nm for its companion. From the sinusoidal shapes of the velocity curves it is apparent that the orbits are nearly circular. From further examination of the light curve it is found that the eclipse is 150 days long and the time period between the first contact and minimum of the light curve is 10.8 hours. Find the masses and radii of both stars(i=90°). wwww....
