The three important differences between terrestrial planet and jovian planet.
Answer to Problem 1RD
The first important difference between terrestrial planet and Jovian planet is that Terrestrial planet are near to sun while Jovian are far from sun, second difference is that terrestrial planets have small masses while Jovians have large masses and the third difference is that the terrestrial planets are solids while the Jovian planets are gaseous.
Explanation of Solution
The larger and the outer planets of the solar system are called jovian planets, and planets which are at inner side of the solar system are called terrestrial planets.
The three important difference between the jovian and terrestrial planets are.
Terrestrial planet | Jovian planet |
The terrestrial planets lie near to the Sun. | The jovian planet lie far from the Sun. |
The terrestrial planets are of small masses and small radius. | The jovian planets are large in masses and larger in the radius. |
The surface of the terrestrial planet is predominately solid | The surface of the jovian planet is gaseous. |
Thus, The first important difference between terrestrial planet and Jovian planet is that Terrestrial planet are near to sun while Jovian are far from sun, second difference is that terrestrial planets have small masses while Jovians have large masses and the third difference is that the terrestrial planets are solids while the Jovian planets are gaseous.

- 2. Consider the situation described in problem 1 where light emerges horizontally from ground level. Take k = 0.0020 m' and no = 1.0001 and find at which horizontal distance, x, the ray reaches a height of y = 1.5 m.arrow_forward2-3. Consider the situation of the reflection of a pulse at the interface of two string described in the previous problem. In addition to the net disturbances being equal at the junction, the slope of the net disturbances must also be equal at the junction at all times. Given that p1 = 4.0 g/m, H2 = 9.0 g/m and Aj = 0.50 cm find 2. A, (Answer: -0.10 cm) and 3. Ay.

- Look at the answer and please show all work step by steparrow_forward3. As a woman, who's eyes are h = 1.5 m above the ground, looks down the road sees a tree with height H = 9.0 m. Below the tree is what appears to be a reflection of the tree. The observation of this apparent reflection gives the illusion of water on the roadway. This effect is commonly called a mirage. Use the results of questions 1 and 2 and the principle of ray reversibility to analyze the diagram below. Assume that light leaving the top of the tree bends toward the horizontal until it just grazes ground level. After that, the ray bends upward eventually reaching the woman's eyes. The woman interprets this incoming light as if it came from an image of the tree. Determine the size, H', of the image.
