When visiting a friend in Columbus, OH, this winter, you noticed that the temperatures were consistently colder in Columbus than
leva [86]

Answer:

land surfaces heat and cool more rapidly than water surfaces because of the high specific heat of water.

Explanation:

  • The change is due to the fact that the land surface as compared to the water surface absorbs more amount of heat and can easily release the same amount of heat at much faster rate.
  • While the oceans of the seas have specific heat or water has a heat-retaining capacity like the latent heat it is sensible heat.
  • <u>Thus when coming to Columbus in winters the temperature is colder than the coastal city of Atlanta NJ as the effect of the land and the sea breezes and also temperature extremes are known to be found in the interiors of the continents.</u>

As you know from Part D, most planets are undetectable by the transit method. Nevertheless, scientists have put great effort and
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

See explanation below:

Explanation:

Transit Photometry is the most widely-used and effective to date, it has been a method that measures the light curve of distant stars for periodic dips in brightness. These are the result of exoplanets passing or transiting in front of the star relative to the observer. It is currently the most effective and sensitive method for detecting extrasolar planets, particularly from an observatory in space. When combined with radial velocity data, a transit can also provide a good estimate of the planet's mass. This method detects distant planets by measuring the minute dimming of a star as an orbiting planet passes between it and the Earth.

The main reason direct detection of exoplanets is difficult is because most planets orbit  planets orbit at small angular separations on the sky, this means a direct detection is only possible if the star's light can be suppressed or occulted such that the faint light from the planet can be detected.

Some planets are found via the wobble method, using both methods, combining mass and size, scientists can calculate the planet's density, an important step towards assessing its composition.
