Step by step
Solved in 2 steps
- 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.1) How massive would Earth had been if it had accreted hydrogen compounds in addition to the sme properties listed in table 7.1? (Assume the same properties of the ingredients as listed in the table) 2) Now imagine that Earth had been able to capture hydrogen and helium gas in the same proportions as listed in the table. How massive would it have been?Why is almost every solid surface in our solar system scarred by craters?
- Some interplanetary properties. Use excel calculator to fill in the missing calculations. use mass of the sun Msol= 1.99 x 10^30 kgEarth formed in a swirling disk of matter surrounding the sun. As particles in the disk collected and stuck together, they grew larger and some eventually became planets. What force was responsible for the collisions between these particles?How much would a 10lb bowling ball weigh on an exoplanet that was twice as massive as Earth but had the same radius? 1. 10lb 2. 40lb 3. 100lb 4. none of the above
- Not including technology and instruments, give 2 reasons why our knowledge of the solar system has increased considerably in the past few years.What is an exoplanet? Group of answer choices A planet in our solar system beyond Pluto. Any planet with extra-terrestrial life. A planet in an extra-solar star system outside of our solar system. Objects in the solar system such as Pluto that were once considered planets but no longer are.How would the solar system be different if the solar nebula had cooled, with a temperature half its actual value? [select all that apply] options: There would be more comets. Life would have been very unlikely to evolve here. There would be no comets. There would be fewer asteroids. There would be more asteroids. Jovian planets would have formed closer to Sun. Terrestrial planets would be large
