How can scientists be certain that nuclear fusion is not occurring on the outer gas giants?

English

HACTEHA [7]3 years ago

Answer: D. These planets do not produce energy,

Explanation:

Nuclear fusion leads to the production of energy and when energy is produced on a planetary scale, it radiates. Scientists have not picked up any energy coming from the gas giants which means that they do not produce energy which gives us proof that there is no nuclear fusion occurring on them.

A planet being rocky is not a prerequisite for nuclear fusion to occur which rules out the first option. The sun has more gas volume than these gas giants yet produces energy so the second option is wrong as well. The third option is also incorrect because the sun is many times larger than the gas giants yet initiates nuclear fusion.

Define energy and apply conservation of energy to closed systems.
Artemon [7]
The law of conservation of energy is an important law of physics. Basically, it says that while energy can turn from one kind into another, the total amount of energy doesn't change. This law applies only to closed systems, meaning systems that can't exchange energy with their environment

Which scenario is an example of extrinsic motivation? The doorbell rang, but Manny didn't answer; he felt too exhausted for visi
hichkok12 [17]

Extrinsic motivation is driven  by external factors , which will make people  do things to gain external benefits. Thus, the scenario that exemplifies extrinsic motivation is the fact that Lacey ran into a heated shop to warm up, when the temperature suddenly dropped. What made Lacey react in that way so that he could take shelter from the weather ? An external factor: extremely cold temperature.  The other examples stand for intrinsic motivation since the drive that activates a certain behaviour in those people comes from within their own selves:  not feeling like answering the door; feeling guilty and confessing ; and loving animals and volunteering for rescuing them.
