That's the familiar description of a comet.

If I were the amateur astronomer who discovered the new comet, then
according to the tradition of the astronomical community, I would have
the privilege of naming it.  I would call it  Comet AL2006/2016.

Answer:  C. comets.

Explanation:

  • Asteroids are rocky objects majority of which are found in belt between orbits of Mars and Jupiter. Example: Ceres
  • Dwarf planets are similar in composition to planets and are found in Kuiper belt. Pluto is a dwarf planet.
  • A comet has a solid rocky core surrounded by atmosphere of frozen gases. Comets are present in the outskirts of the solar system and orbit the Sun in an elliptical orbit.
  • Moons are are natural satellites revolving about planets. Example: Titan, Phobos and Deimos etc.

Object Z is made of frozen gases that surround a rocky core and it travels in a highly elliptical orbit around the sun.  The characteristics are similar to ones of comets. Thus, object Z closely resembles a comet.

A single-turn circular loop of wire of radius 65 mm lies in a plane perpendicular to a spatially uniform magnetic field. During
BabaBlast [244]

Answer:

Explanation:

change in flux = no of turns x area of loop x change in magnetic field

= 1 x π 65² x 10⁻⁶ x ( 650 - 350 ) x 10⁻³

= 3.9 x 10⁻³ weber .

rate of change of flux  = change of flux / time

= 3.9 x 10⁻³ / .10

= 39 x 10⁻³ V

= 39 mV .

Since the magnetic flux is directed outside page and it is increasing , induced current will be clockwise so that magnetic field is produced in opposite direction to reduce it , as per Lenz's law.

Valentin [98]

Answer:

b. craters, river valleys feeding into surface lakes of very cold liquids

Explanation:

  • Jovian moons are the four largest satellites like the moon of the Jupiter ie the Lo, Europa, Ganymede, Callisto and were first seen by the galileo. They are amiugly the largest moons with radii larger than the dwarf planet.  
  • Lo has more than 400 active volcanoes and dotted more than 100 mountains and has an extremely thin atmosphere made up of sulfur dioxide. The Europa has deep oceans of liquid water, and the layer of ice, and are characteristic of the tidal heating.  
  • <u>While the surface of Callisto is heavily cratered and has salty liquid water.</u>

cluponka [151]

Answer:

10

Explanation:

We can look at this problem as a triangle, r is the hypotenuse so if we take the square root of 6^2+8^2 we get 10
