A planet is orbiting a nearby star. Suppose that the star’s gravity increases over time. What effect will this increase most lik
ely have on the planet’s path of motion? A.
The planet will continue to move in an elliptical orbit around the star.
B.
The planet will begin to orbit the star at a constant speed.
C.
The shape of the planet’s orbit will change from elliptical to circular.
D.
The planet’s orbital path will become smaller and its orbital period will increase.
E.
The planet will begin to orbit the star in the opposite direction.
Planets orbit around the Sun (star) due to the gravity of this star which pulls down them around it. This gravity is the vital force which maintains the elliptical path of their orbit.
If this force of gravity will change it will affect the celestial bodies revolving around it like a planet as this force of gravity is directly proportional to mass and inversely proportional to the distance between them.
According to the question if the gravity of the star increases it will change the orbital path of the planets as they will be more pulled towards the sun which will decrease the distance between the star and planet and the orbital path will become smaller and the orbital period will increase.
Answer:A star is an astronomical object consisting of a luminous spheroid of plasma held together by its own gravity. The nearest star to Earth is the Sun. dont care ig i copied
Soil Microbiome is the word used to describe all the micro-organisms that live inside the soil. This includes bacteria, viruses, amoeba, protozoans and fungus. When assessing the soil microbiome this will also give insight on the type of plants that can function well it this kind of soil as well as describing the type of interactions that are made in this area. A specific soil microbiome is in sense it's own complex eco-system.
Examples of ecosystem services include products such as food and water, regulation of floods, soil erosion and disease outbreaks, and non-material benefits such as recreational and spiritual benefits in natural areas.
