Why don't the planets move exactly along the ecliptic?

Physics

AVprozaik [17]4 years ago

As seen from the Earth, the Sun, Moon, and planets all appear to move along the ecliptic. ... Unlike the Sun, however, the planets don't always move in the same direction along the ecliptic. They usually move in the same direction as the Sun, but from time to time they seem to slow down, stop, and reverse direction!

Because of various events in their (unknown) past history that resulted in deviations from the theoretical orbit. That formed in the plain of the ecliptic.

Capturing a large passing comet or asteroid might do it.

A Coronal Mass Ejection (CME) is an outburst of energy that occurs near the outer part of the sun's atmosphere which causes a production of plasma along with a magnetic field.

The outermost part of the sun's atmosphere is called the Solar Corona Although difficult to see, the corona can be seen during a total solar eclipse.

What type of power plant burns material to make electricity?
Alecsey [184]
<h2>Hello!</h2>

The answer is: D. Coal

<h2>Why?</h2>

Coal power plants burn coal in to get steam, the steam flows into a turbine which is coupled to an electrical generator.

Coal power plants work burning high amounts of coal into a boiler, generation a lot of steam under extreme pressures. The steam is obtained when the water is heated by the burning coal, then the steam is cooled, being transformed in liquid water again (due the condensation process) and it's sent back on a cyclical process.

Have a nice day!
