Answer:

Scientists can use the wobble to work the planet's mass and the distance from the star.

Explanation:

Detecting a star's wobble is one way to find out if there are planets orbiting it, this happens because the planet is “tugging” on it, the gravitational force from the star acts to keep the planet in orbit, and the gravitational force from the planet acts to move the star as the planet orbits. Scientists can use the wobble to work the planet's mass and the distance from the star.

Considering this information we can conclude that the correct answer is distance to the planet and mass of the planet.

I hope you find this information useful and interesting! Good luck!

Find the surface area of this triangular prism. Be sure to include the correct unit in your answer. 13 cm 5 cm 10 cm 12 cm​
gladu [14]

Hello. You did not present the measurements of the triangular prism, which makes it impossible for the surface area of this prism to be calculated. However, I will try to help you in the best possible way.

To calculate the surface area of the triangular prism, you will first need to identify the value of the side surface and the value of the base area. The value of the lateral surface corresponds to the area of the three rectangular sides of the figure.

After these values are identified, you must multiply the value of the base area by 2 and add the result to the value of the side surface. The result corresponds to the surface area of the rectangular prism. This can be represented by the formula:

surface area = lateral surface + (2 * base area)
