Answer:

The gravitational effect when spacecraft flies close to the asteroid.

Explanation:

The gravity of a planet, or in this case an asteroid, is determined by two factors: it's mass and it's size. The bigger the mass, the stronger the gravity is. But the bigger the size of the mass is, the smaller the gravity is, this because of the distance from the center of the mass. As you can see by measuring the gravitational effect when a spacecraft is close to an asteroid can help determine it's size.

Although this is helpful, there are some other ways scientists are measuring asteroids' sizes. NASA uses infrared to determine in an accurate way their sizes.

Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

D- Many of Guy de Maupassant's short stories have become classics because of the author's famed and masterful use of irony, evidenced in the slow revelation of a tragic twist of fate at the end of each piece.

Explanation:

The original sentence begins with the modifier "Famed for his masterful use of irony," which requires a person as its subject. However, in the original sentence, "many of Guy de Maupassant's short stories" is the subject. Moreover, the phrase "due to the author slowly revealing" is awkward.

A. The opening verb-ed modifier “Famed for his…” is incorrectly modifying the subject of the preceding clause “many of Guy de Maupassant's short stories”. Usage of “due to” is not correct here.

B. Many of Guy de Maupassant's short stories have become classics because of how he famously and masterfully uses irony, evident in the slow revelation of a tragic twist of fate at the end of each piece. Incorrect:

i. “because of” should be followed by a noun or clause beginning with noun.

C. Famed for using irony in a masterful way, many of Guy de Maupassant's short stories have become classics because of the author slowly revealing a tragic twist of fate at the end of each piece.: Incorrect. This choice repeats the modifier error of choice A.

D. Many of Guy de Maupassant's short stories have become classics because of the author's famed and masterful use of irony, evidenced in the slow revelation of a tragic twist of fate at the end of each piece. Correct.

E. Many of Guy de Maupassant's short stories have become classics because he slowly revealed a tragic twist of fate at the end of each piece, demonstrating his famed and masterful use of irony. Incorrect. . This choice repeats the same pronoun error of Choice B.
