Which of the following will allow you to learn something about a transiting planet's atmospheric composition? Which of the follo

wing will allow you to learn something about a transiting planet's atmospheric composition? Compare spectra obtained before and during an eclipse. Use the Doppler method to study the planet throughout a cycle from one transit to the next. Calculate the planet's size, and then use size to infer what its atmospheric composition must be. Look for slight variations in the time between transits.

Answer:

Compare spectra obtained before and during an eclipse

Explanation:

  • The passage of a planet between the star and the earth id called as a transit.
  • The compassion between the spectral variation obtained from the light emitted by the planet can be used to find the presence of the exoplanet.
  • The transiting planet has an atmosphere as some of the light passes from the sun and reaches the earth from the atmosphere of the planet.
  • The brightness goes on decreasing as the planet passes out in an eclipse phase.

Zina [86]

Answer:

B. DIVERGENT

Explanation:

Ridge push (also known as gravitational sliding) or sliding plate force is a proposed driving force for plate motion in plate tectonics that occurs at mid-ocean ridges as the result of the rigid lithosphere sliding down the hot, raised asthenosphere below mid-ocean ridges.

The Sun warms equatorial regions of Earth ______ than the poles. This causes an area of ______ pressure to develop near the equa
iren [92.7K]

The Sun warms equatorial regions of Earth Low than the poles. This causes an area of toward pressure to develop near the equator. As a result, the northeast and southeast trade winds are created as air at the surface then flows less the equator.

<h3>Why does air tend to rise in equatorial regions?</h3>

The reason of the air tends to rise in equatorial regions because in the equatorial regions there is more sunlight as compared to other areas. There is difference in the heat in different areas due to that warmer air rises.

Thus, option B is correct.

The outer planets are made mostly of gas which makes them
Lesechka [4]

Answer:

less dense than the solid inner planets.

Explanation:

A planet can be defined as a large celestial body having sufficient mass to allow for self-gravity and make it assume a nearly circular shape (hydrostatic equilibrium), revolves in an orbit around the Sun in the solar system and has a cleared neighborhood.

Basically, the planets are divided into two (2) main categories and these includes;

I. Outer planets: these planets are beyond the asteroid belt and comprises of jupiter, saturn, uranus and neptune, from left to right of the solar system.

II. Inner planets: these planets are the closest to the sun and comprises of mercury, venus, earth and mars.

The outer planets are made mostly of gas (hydrogen and helium) which makes them less dense than the solid inner planets. These gases are generally known to be less dense in terms of physical properties.
