Look at the images of Comet Mrkos on the left page of Concept Art: Observations of Comets. Is the comet shown on its way in around the Sun, on its way out, or is it not possible to tell?
Comet's have two tails, a dust tail and an ion tail, and each tail points in a unique direction. Briefly describe these directions.
Please do not give solution in image format thanku A comet is observed to have an orbit with a perihelion distance of 0.5 A.U. and an eccentricity of 0.980. What is the aphelion distance of the comet’s orbit?
Explain Comets?
Explain briefly concept of Halley’s Comet?
Suppose a comet were discovered approaching the Sun, one whose orbit would cause it to collide with Earth 20 months later, after perihelion passage. (This is approximately the situation described in the science-fiction novel Lucifer’s Hammer by Larry Niven and Jerry Pournelle.) What could we do? Would there be any way to protect ourselves from a catastrophe?
Suppose that a comet travels this path and is 400 astronomical units from the sun asits closest, find the hyperbola equation of the path of the comet if the sun is 1000 astronomical unitsfrom the center of the path. (Assume that the center is at the origin.)
How do you solve for the aphelion? Particularly all I need to answer is letter b for now It takes 89.2 years for a comet to travel around its elliptical orbit. in which its perihelion is 0.67 AU. Calculate (a) the semi-major axis of the comet and (b) an estimate of the comet’s aphelion, both in astronomical units (AU).
A comet's appearance when it is distant from the Sun might be described as "hazy." As it nears the Sun, how does its appearance change?
How does a comet seem when it is far from the Sun? How does its look alter as it approaches the Sun?
For the following, determine whether the type of explanation offered is theoretical (the kind used in inference to the best explanation) or nontheoretical (e.g., teleological, interpretive, procedural). No one noticed the comet before because of cloud cover.
Comets have very elongated elliptical orbits with the sun at one focus. Using Kepler's Law, why a comet travels much faster near the sun than it does at the other end of the orbit.
