- Please helpThe planet Uranus was discovered in 1781, and Neptune, the next planet outward from the Sun, was discovered in 1846. Imagine you're an astronomer in 1846, and you start wondering if there's another planet out beyond Neptune. You decide to try and discover its existence using the same method that was used for Neptune. How will you do this? Group of answer choices You'll recruit a large number of astronomers to use their telescopes to carefully scan the sky in directions that are far from the ecliptic. The regions around the north and south celestial poles will probably be the best "hunting grounds" for the new planet. You'll examine Uranus and Neptune very carefully, on every clear night, for several years, to see if you can find any evidence that sunlight has been reflected off of the `new' planet, then off of Uranus or Neptune, before arriving on Earth. On rare occasions when Neptune passes in front of the Sun, as seen from Earth, you'll look carefully at the Sun (with a safe…Needs Complete typed solution with 100 % accuracy.
- What is the difference in orbital velocity between Saturn's two coorbital satellites if the semimajor axes of their orbits are 151,400 km and 151,500 km?Imagine a trans-Neptunian object with roughly the same mass as Earth but located 50 AU from the sun. a) based on the solar nebula theory, what do you think this object would be made of and why? b) on the basis of speculation, assume a reasonable density for this object and calculate its diameter in units of Earth radii.If you were to record the spectrum of Saturn as well as the A ring, you would find light from one edge of the rings redshift and light from the other edge blueshift. If you observed a spectral line at a wavelength of 525 nm, what difference in wavelength (in nm) should you expect between the opposite edge of the rings? (Hint: The radius of the edge of the A ring is 136,500 km. Use the formula for orbital velocity and the formula for the Doppler shift.) _______ nm
