Answer:

The Jovian planets formed beyond the Frostline while the terrestrial planets formed in the Frostline in the solar nebular

Explanation:

The Jovian planets are the large planets namely Saturn, Jupiter, Uranus, and Neptune. The terrestrial planets include the Earth, Mercury, Mars, and Venus. According to the nebular theory of solar system formation, the terrestrial planets were formed from silicates and metals. They also had high boiling points which made it possible for them to be located very close to the sun.

The Jovian planets formed beyond the Frostline. This is an area that can support the planets that were made up of icy elements. The large size of the Jovian planets is as a result of the fact that the icy elements were more in number than the metal components of the terrestrial planets.

If Jupiter were 10 times more massive, it would generate nuclear fusion in its core and be a star instead of a planet. If Jupite
OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

Let me put it in numbers. Jupiter has mass of 1.898x10^27Kg, make it 10 times as much and it becomes 1.898x10^28 Kg.

TRAPPIST-1, smallest star ever found has Mass of 1.77x10^29Kg, that is around 93 times larger than the mass of Jupiter.

Clearly 10 times as much is not enough to generate fusion reaction and become a star, in theory Jupiter must be at least 85 times larger than it's current mass to be able to generate fusion reaction and become a star.

So i think we can conclude that if Jupiter were to have 10 times of its own mass, it would not become a star, therefore the given statement is False.

The answer would be it will be longer than the 656.3 nm. The reduced mass of positronium is less than hydrogen so the photon energy will be a reduced amount of for positronium than for hydrogen. So this will mean that the wavelength will be lengthier.
