The sentence, which most accurately describe compounds is this: THEY HAVE A UNIQUE SET OF PROPERTIES THAT CAN BE USED AS IDENTIFIERS.
Compounds are formed when two or more elements combine together in a specific mass ratio. Compounds normally have some properties which can be used to identify them. For instance, water as a compound has the following physical properties: it is odorless, colorless, neutral to litmus paper, it is a liquid at room temperature, it has a boiling point of 100 degree Celsius and a freezing point of zero degree Celsius. All these properties can be used to identify water in case it is given to us as an unknown substance. If the unknown substance does not have all these properties, then it is not water.<span />

What are the two segments of a comet?
Katyanochek1 [597]
Two segments of a comet are head and tail.

Head is main part of comet. Depending on how comet was created head can be made out of metal (such as iron) or stone. Also, head contains a lot of dust and water ice. When comet comes closer to Sun it's surface warms and ice starts to melt. Due to low pressure in space it almost instantly evaporates creating water vapour. This vapour causes the particles of dust to raise above surface of head and to fall back of the head. 

Tail is most viewed part of a comet. It best something that we can see with naked eye and that helps us to distinguish comet and all other celestial bodies. Tail is made out of two other tails. First is dust tail. It is created when dust particles rise from head of a comet and fall behing it. Gravity of a comet causes for these particles to follow head. Dust tail is always located opposite to direction of movement. Second tail is ionic tail. When solar particles (such as solar wind) hit comet they ionize atoms and molecules. This causes them to glow and produce light which we can see. Ionic tail is always opposite to direction in which Sun is located. When comet is far from Sun dust and ionic tail lay in same position. When comet is close to Sun dust and ionic tail not always lay in same position.

When a certain rubber band is stretched a distance x, it exerts a restoring force of magnitude f = ax, where a is a constant. th
Veseljchak [2.6K]
Given:
F = ax
where
x = distance by which the rubber band is stretched
a =  constant

The work done in stretching the rubber band from x = 0 to x = L is
W=\int_{0}^{L} Fdx = \int_{0}^{L}ax \, dx = \frac{a}{2}  [x^{2} ]_{0}^{L} =  \frac{aL^{2}}{2}

Answer:  \frac{aL^{2}}{2}
