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.(a) Auroras have been observed near the magnetic poles of Uranus. (i) Explain how these lights are produced. (ii) While searching for the auroras of Uranus, an orbiting satellite registered the spectral lines. These are emitted by hydrogen atoms during the transition from the first excited state to the ground state. Calculate the wavelength of this radiation and indicate the region of the electromagnetic spectrum in which the satellite made the observation.
- There is a cloud of marbles far out in space. The distance from one end of the cloud to the other is D , and the marbles all have mass m . Near the cloud are two asteroids. One of the asteroids has mass Ma and is located a distance D from the near edge of the cloud, whereas the other has mass 12Ma and is located a distance 3D from the near edge of the cloud, as shown in the illustration.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?how does the solar nebula theory help you understand the location of the asteriod belt
- This is a simulation of two Neptune-sized masses. Click where the field is zero.UF, s In 2014, astronomers discovered 22 new KBOS, among those the following three: 2014 with a period of 331.1 years; 2014 TT, with a period of 280.8 years; 2014 QM with a period of 315.2 years. Given that information and knowing that Neptune's period is 85 441 164.8 years, which of those objects - if any- are likely part of the Plutino family of KBOS? Show your work that lead you to your conclusion.4) Science fiction movies often portray asteroid belts as crowded, dense regions that require spaceships to maneuver quickly to get through them. In this problem, we will calculate the fraction of volume in an asteroid belt that is actually occupied by asteroids. a) If there are 300,000 large asteroids between 2 and 3 AU from the Sun, and each asteroid is assumed to be spherical with a radius of 100 km, determine the total volume occupied by asteroids in this region. Recall that the volume of a sphere is given by the equation V = 4TR³ /3. b) Let's assume the region in which these asteroids orbit is an annulus with an inner radius of 2 AU, an outer radius of 3 AU, and a thickness of 2Ro. Determine the volume of this region. Recall that the area of a circle is given by the equation A = TR². Here are two conversions that you'll need: 1 AU = 1.496 × 108 km and 1 Ro = 6.955 × 105 km. c) What is the ratio of the volume occupied by asteroids to the volume of the asteroid belt (i.e., the…
