Chapter 32, Problem 13RQ
How tilted is Uranus’s axis?
Expert Solution & Answer
To determine
The tilting about the Uranus’s axis.
Answer to Problem 13RQ
The axis of the Uranus is tilted
Explanation of Solution
The Uranus is a member of the outer planet system. It is very large and heavy than the Earth. The density of the Uranus is slightly more than the water.
The axis of the Uranus is tilted
The atmosphere of the Uranus is made of very dense gasses. The solar radiation hardy reached to the surface of Uranus. It receives heat neither from the Sun nor from any other source of heat, so the temperature of the Uranus is very low and it remains cold.
Conclusion:
Therefore, the axis of the Uranus is tilted
