Geography

There's actually an entire documentary made about this certain fish, its name is Parrot Fish.

The reason for its name is because it has a beak, which it uses to bite and eat through coral.

And at the end of the day, when the fishes poop, it turns into sand.

For example, one 2010 study in Marine Biology found that large parrotfish in Hawaii can churn out 840 pounds of eroded coral—i.e. white sand—per year. A single giant humphead parrotfish can produce 11,000 pounds of sand per year.

hope this helps!

An asteroid is in circular orbit around the Sun. Its distance from the Sun is 7.3 times the average distance of Earth from the S
satela [25.4K]

Answer:

An asteroid is in circular orbit around the Sun. Its distance from the Sun is 7.3 times the average distance of Earth from the Sun. The period of this asteroid is  C : 20 Earth years .

Explanation:

Kepler's law

T² ∝ R³

T = orbital period of the planet

R = semi major axis of the orbit.

Now

( T₁ / T₂ )² =  ( R₁ / R₂ )³

T₁ =  Earth time period = 1 year

T₂ = Asteroid time period

R₁ =  The distance between Earth and Sun

R₂ = The distance between Asteroid and Sun

From the question ,

R₂ = 7.3 R₁

applying on the above equation ,

( T₁ / T₂ )² =  ( R₁ / R₂ )³

( 1 / T₂ )² = ( R₁ / 7.3 R₁ )³

( 1 / T₂ )² = ( 1 / 7.3 )³

T₂ = 19.7 year

Hence ,

approximately T₂ = 20 years.

The period of this asteroid is  C : 20 Earth years .
