Answer:
c. detecting the gravitational effect of an orbiting planet (The Wobble"") by looking for the Doppler shifts in the star's spectrum
Explanation:
In a solar system the mass of the star and planets affect each other's orbital movements. The center of gravity of a star and a planet is inside the star. This causes the star to be closer and farther from the Earth at different times. Due to this wobble the star appears to be red shifted when it is farther and blue shifted when it is closer.
When the mass of the planet is high, like a hot Jupiter it causes more wobble i.e., change in radial velocity. This makes it easier to detect the planet. The earliest hot Jupiter found by this method is the planet 51 Pegasi b.
Answer:
612000 C
Explanation:
Current, I, is given as the rate of flow of charge, that is:
I = Δq / Δt
where q = electric charge
t = time taken
This implies that:
Δq = I * Δt
The battery rating is 170 Ampere-hours, therefore:
Δq = 170 * 1 hour
But 1 hour = 3600 seconds;
=> Δq = 170 * 3600 = 612000 C
The total charge that the battery can provide is 612000 C.
Answer:
Explanation:
Solution:
- Finding large moons comparable in size to their planets result from impacts of two astro-bodies. The probability of such an event occurring is very rare.
- Even at the best luck, one moon can be made from the result of giant impact. While the probability of 6 planets having moons of comparable sizes is close to impossible.
Answer:
GAS, LIQUID, CLOUDS
Explanation:
Water can be in three states: solid, liquid and gas, passing from one to another depending on the pressure and temperature.
In this complementation exercise.
When the water cools down the GAS goes to the LIQUID state, these small drops unite and form the CLOUDS
