- Using Appendix G, complete the following table that describes the characteristics of the Galilean moons of Jupiter, starting from Jupiter and moving outward in distance. Table A This system has often been described as a mini solar system. Why might this be so? If Jupiter were to represent the Sun and the Galilean moons represented planets, which moons could be considered more terrestrial in nature and which ones more like gas/ice giants? Why? (Hint: Use the values in your table to help explain your categorization.)arrow_forwardImage is attached. Please help with all problems, I know it is not standard practice to have more the one question in a submitted wuestion, but please, just onece, set that aside and help me.

- Please please solve both sub-parts please please solve accurate this is important sir. Asap thanksarrow_forwardRead the following items carefully. State your assumptions if any. Show your COMPLETE solution and BOX your final answers. Keep your answers and solutions in 4 decimal places. > Initially, 100 milligrams of a new radioactive substance Tobium, named after its discoverer Sir Tobs, was discovered and collected from one of the moons of Jupiter. After 6 hours from collection, the mass decreased by 4%, If the rate of decay IS proportional to the amount of the substance present at time t, find the amount of Tobium remaining after 48 hours.arrow_forwardConclusion(s) and evidence from investigation: 1. What is the relationship between mass and gravity? 2. How is mass and gravity relevant to the formation of the solar system? (think about the sun) 3. Describe the shape of the solar system. 4. Describe the composition (what it is made of) of the solar system. 5. Describe the revolution (orbit) of the solar system. 6. Identify an anomaly (doesn't match the rest) in the data and propose an explanation for it. 7. What were some patterns you found in the columns? List at least 2. 8. Which is the best evidence that the solar system was created from accretion? Explain why. (There may be more than 1!)arrow_forward
- Suppose there were a planet in our Solar System orbiting at a distance of 0.5 AU from theSun, and having ten times the mass and four times the radius of Earth. For reference, theEarth has a mass of 5.97 × 1024 kg and a radius of 6,378 km a) Calculate the density of this hypothetical planet.b) Based on your answer from part a), what do you think this planet would be made of?Explain your reasoning.c) Do this planet’s properties agree with the condensation theory for the formation of ourSolar System? Why or why not?arrow_forwardWhich of the following is least reasonable regarding Trojan asteroids? Group of answer choices Trojan asteroids are located in either of two gravitationally stable regions within the orbit of Jupiter, about 120° apart. Trojan asteroids are those asteroids in the asteroid belt which are hidden from view by Mars. Trojan asteroids are kept in orbit primarily by the gravitational effects of Jupiter and the Sun. Trojan asteroids pose much less danger to us than Earth-crossing asteroids. Trojan asteroids constitute a small minority of all the known asteroids.arrow_forwardCan please solve question 4 and 5 explaining step by step on a picture please, thanks. all the information it's on the first picture. where Uk= 1/2K((x2)^2-(x1)^2)) and Ug= mg(x2-x1) and K is the slope and in this case is 7.99 N/m. I think this is enough information to solve this thank you. Just post the picute of all the step you did to solve it.arrow_forward
