A comet is the loose, icy body with a long, narrow orbit. 
Comets are very small solar system body made mainly of ices mixed with smaller amounts of dust and rock. Most comets are not larger than a few kilometers across. The main body of the comet is called the nucleus, and it can contain water, methane, nitrogen and other ices. Their speeds vary depending on their orbits and where they are in it. The closer they are to the sun, the faster they are going.

Why do different atoms or molecules preferentially absorb different wavelengths of light?
Paladinen [302]

Answer:

The electrons in an atom can only occupy certain allowed energy levels. ... Only certain energy levels are allowed, so only certain transitions are possible and hence specific wavelengths are emitted when an electron drops to a lower energy level.

The voltage leaving the secondary coil of a transformer is equal to 240 V. The secondary coil is wrapped 8 times around the core
Lina20 [59]

The initial voltage at the primary= 750 V

Explanation:

for a transformer

Es/ Ep= Ns/ Np

Es= secondary voltage= 240 V

Ep= primary voltage

Ns= number of turns in the secondary=8

Np= Number of turns in the primary=25

so 240/Ep=8/25

Ep=750 V

Which of the following best compares longitudinal waves with transverse waves?
Semmy [17]
In longitudinal waves, the particles of the medium or a system displaces back and forth(parallel) in the direction of the propagation of waves. In transverse waves, the particles of the medium or a system displaces perpendicular to the direction of the propagation of waves. Therefore, C is correct.
