Answer:

Option (3)

Explanation:

Given that, planet Y is at a distance of 1 AU away from the sun, and the planet Z is at a distance 0.39 AU away from the sun.

From Kepler's law of astronomical unit, it is known that the planets that are closer to the sun move at a faster rate in comparison to the distant planets because of their high gravitational force.

So from the given condition, it can be concluded that the planet Y is at a greater distance (1 AU) from the sun, which will orbit the sun at a much slower rate because of its comparatively weaker gravitational force, as the speed of a planet is directly affected by the distance from the sun.

Thus, the correct answer is option (3).

The answer to your question is C: Planet Y, because the Gravitational force is weakened by the distance. Hope this helps!

The remains of these form oil and natural gas
Umnica [9.8K]

The correct answer is - marine organisms.

Both, the oil and the natural gas are formed on the basis of dead marine organisms. When the marine organisms were dying, they were falling in depths and onto the sea/ocean floor. The sea floor is covered with very soft sediments, and if they were not eaten by scavengers, or they have been covered with another layer of sediments, they have been relatively well preserved. As they were decomposing, the isolation, temperature, and pressure, managed to transform the dead remains of the marine organisms into oily sticky liquid that over time gained the characteristics that we see now in the oil and the natural gas.

How can convergence lead to the formation of clouds
mihalych1998 [28]
If the warm air rises high enough, the air will eventually cool to its dew point. When it cools to its dew point, it begins the process of condensation. Starting from here, as air rises, the heat of condensation stored in water vapor will gradually release.

Describe remediation techniques and how they work.
Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

Pump-and-Treat is a primary technique for groundwater and soil remediation. In this process, groundwater is pumped to the surface, and contaminants are removed by a variety of treatment methods, including air-stripping, activated carbon, ultraviolet or ozone treatment, precipitation and biodegradation.
