How can we use variations in luminosity to set limits on the size of an active galactic nucleus?

If we see an object brighten in 1 hour, we know that the object cannot be longer than 1 light-hour in size. If it were, light from the far side of the object would start arriving at our telescopes more than an hour after the light from the front side and we would see the brightening take longer time than an hour to occur.

Explanation:

To understand the question above, let us discuss what variations in luminosity is:

variations in luminosity are two distinct word coming together to form a phenomenon. They are concepts that help us to bring to our understanding how brightness of the Sun significantly affects or impacts on global warming.

Variations as a concept can be describes as the total energy the sun generates in term of output or emission which also can be refereed to as the Luminosity ratio. Luminosity can also be refereed to as a concept caused by changing dark (sunspot) that bright structures on the solar disk during the 11-year sunspot cycle.
