- Jupiters moon, lo, loses about 870.0 kg/s of sulfur dioxide to Jupiters magnetosphere. Sulfur dioxide currently makes up 0.83% of lo's mass. How long in years until lo runs out of sulfur dioxide at the current loss rate? Lo has a mass of 1 x 1023kg and there are 3.15x107 seconds in a year.For which of the following reasons (select all that apply), is it useful/important to send rovers to other planetary bodies in our solar system? O a. The engineering innovations developed to produce successful/viable rovers and landers on other planets can help lead to developments in the technology used here on Earth that may have taken far more time to develop without the limitations provided by space travel to foreign worlds. O b. The data collected can help improve our understanding of the evolution/development of our solar system. O. Rovers/landers can be outfitted with various tools and equipment that can be used to inform of us of the geological histories of each of the planets they visit. O d. More direct probes of the planetary surface are possible to detect signs of the building blocks of life. O e. Rock samples can be used to calibrate our estimations of the age of the solar system.Imagine that in the future, scientists plan on colonizing planets that orbit other stars. Based on your knowledge of the life cycle of stars, decide which type of star (High mass or Low mass) the planet should orbit that would allow for human life to safely live on that planet for the longest period of time. Explain your answer using examples from the life cycle of each star.
- I need help with this question! There is only one part to it!Today, the largest radio telescope in the world is located in Puerto Rico Russia China Australia To be considered habitable, a planet must have an alien civilization living on it the right temperature for liquid water on the surface the right conditions for human explorers to be able to survive a very large iron coreThe Perseverance rover landed on Mars in early 2021. During travel to Mars, thespacecraft carrying the rover cruised at a speed of nearly 25,000 miles per hour. Atthis speed, how long would it have taken for the spacecraft to travel 0.5 au? Giveyour answer in days
- If a protostellar disk is 240 AU in radius and the disk plus the forming star together contain 9 solar masses, what is the orbital speed at the outer edge of the disk in kilometers per second?describe in detail why and in what situation you use mgh=1/2kx^2, and the question (why it is looking like this?)If the solar nebula hypothesis is correct, do you think there are more planets in the Universe than stars? Why or why not?
- Tutorial A radio broadcast left Earth in 1925. How far in light years has it traveled? If there is, on average, 1 star system per 400 cubic light years, how many star systems has this broadcast reached? Assume that the fraction of these star systems that have planets is 0.30 and that, in a given planetary system, the average number of planets that have orbited in the habitable zone for 4 billion years is 0.85. How many possible planets with life could have heard this signal? Part 1 of 3 To figure out how many light years a signal has traveled we need to know how long since the signal left Earth. If the signal left in 1925, distance in light years = time since broadcast left Earth. d = tnow - tbroadcast d = light years Submit Skip (you cannot come back)Considering what you learned from the solar nebula theory, how likely do you think it is to find habitable planets in other solar systems? Visit NASA’s Kepler mission to learn more about this search, and write a ½ page summary on the mission.Some astronomers argue that Jupiter and Saturn areunusual, while other astronomers argue that all solarsystems should contain one or two such giant planets.
