Which of the following statements about comets is true? A. Comets rarely fall into an orbit around the Sun. They usually enter t
GREYUIT [131]
<h2>Right answer: Comets have very elliptical orbits that usually take them far beyond the orbit of Pluto, but also take them closer to the Sun than Earth</h2>

Comets are celestial bodies constituted by ice, dust and rocks that orbit around the Sun, after having been altered by the Oort cloud; following different trajectories that can be <u>highly eccentric elliptical</u><u> </u>(periodic trajectories), parabolic or hyperbolic.

One of the main characteristics of a comet is that it travels quite fast, on its way around the Sun and has a long tail. It should be noted that the tails of comets always go in the opposite direction to the Sun (due to the radiation pressure of sunlight).

Therefore, the correct option is C.

Ghella [55]

Answer: 40.650406504065 or 40 minutes and 39 seconds.

Explanation:

1 k = 1000m

race = 10000m

runner time = 10000 / 4.1

runner time = 2439.0243902439024 seconds

runner time = 2439.0243902439024/60 = 40.650406504065 or 40 minutes and 39 seconds.

Why would knowing the characteristics of circuits be important in designing electrical circuits?
zubka84 [21]
Well if you didn't you could make mistakes, which would lead ,in the best case, at a fail of the circuit , or if it goes out of control it could be dangerous

for example you have to know that the wires become hot and they loose their abbilitys as connecters(the hotter it will, the more energy you lose becouse the R will be bigger)
