The astronomer who discovered the dwarf planet Eris suggests there might be another object far beyond the Kupier belt. If this P

lanet X exists, it would be about 10 times the mass of Earth and 2-3 times the size of Earth, putting it in the ice giant category, and have an orbit with a semi-major axis of 700 AU. You can read more about this object on NASA's page. If this object exists, what would we classify it as?

These objects would be classified as extreme trans Neptunian object (ETNO).

Explanation:

ETNO’s are the objects lying beyond the planet Neptune and orbiting the Sun. They follow a highly eccentric path which is tilted. ETNO has been grouped into three major according to their respective perihelia.  

Within this region (beyond Neptune’s orbit), a hypothetical planet has been discovered. It was discovered following its gravitational effect on the other objects of Kuiper Belt (region beyond the orbit of the Neptune- the last planet of our Solar system)

The Planet is assumed to be around 2 times the Earth’s size and around 10 times heavier than Earth.

The effect of gravity on a falling object can be modeled by a ball dropped
weeeeeb [17]

Answer:

B. Friction with air also affects the fall of the object.

Explanation:

The limitation of this experimental design is that friction with air also affects the fall of the object.

  • Therefore, it is difficult to measure effect of gravity on falling objects.
  • Air resistance cause friction in the movement of an object falling.
  • Frictional force resists the motion of an object subject to free fall.

Therefore, the experiment will be biased due to the influence of the frictional force.
