How is Uranus colder than Neptune

Physics
1 answer:
STatiana [176]3 years ago
4 0
With Uranus at an average distance of 2.88 billion kilometres from the Sun and Neptune at an average distance of 4.5 billion kilometres it would be very easy to point out which of the gas giants is the coldest, but if you were you were to say that Neptune was the coldest, you’d be wrong.<span>Given that we expect planets further from the Sun to be colder than those closer, this does make Neptune and Uranus quite a mysterious pair. Uranus and Neptune are brimming with volatiles such as water, methane and ammonia and due to their composition in comparison to Jupiter and Saturn, which are comprised mainly of hydrogen and helium, are labelled the ice giants. Scientists have measured how hot Uranus and Neptune should be and have found that Uranus is very cold and very dim</span>

How can a person detect infrared rays without an instrument?
natita [175]
So we want to know how can we detect infrared rays without an instrument. Infrared rays or heat, are a part of electromagnetic spectrum. We have specialized nerve cells in our skin called thermoreceptors that can detect differences in temperature that are produced by infrared part of EM spectrum.

The potential difference between the surface of a 3.0-cm-diameter power line and a point 1.0 m distant is 3.9 kV. Find the line
Korolek [52]

Answer:

The linear charge density is 5.19 X 10⁻⁶ C/m

Explanation:

The potential difference between two cylinders, is given as

V = (λ/2πε)ln(b/a)

where;

λ is the line charge density on the power line.

b is the distance between the power line = 1 m

a is the radius of the wire = 1.5 cm = 0.015 m

ε is the permittivity of free space = 8.9 X 10⁻¹² C

V*2πε = λ* ln(b/a)

3900 *(2π*8.9 x10⁻¹²)= λ *ln(1/0.015)

2.1812 X 10⁻⁷ = 4.1997* λ

λ = 5.19 X 10⁻⁶ C/m

Therefore, the linear charge density is 5.19 X 10⁻⁶ C/m
