What did the tail of comet points?
A Comets tail points away from the sun.
What direction does a comets tail always points?
Away from the Sun. The tails is caused by the solar wind.
What body forms a tail as it approaches the sun?
Comets are celestial objects that have tails and move around the sun. When a comet is moving toward the sun, its tail points toward the sun.
Why a comets tail always points away from the Sun.?
Does it? 2nd Answer: Of course comets tails point away from the Sun!!! The "tail" is made of varying sizes of ice particles and chunks. The solar wind (a faint outstreaming of solar material) pushes comets' tails out, away from the sun.
Do comets or asteroids have a gas tail?
Comets!
A comets tail points to what?
A comet's tail points away from the Sun. This happens because the solar wind pushes the comet's gas and dust particles away from the Sun, forming a tail that always points in the opposite direction of the Sun.
What do we see comets as?
Comets are seen as bright, icy bodies that orbit the Sun. When they get closer to the Sun, they release gas and dust in a glowing coma and often develop a tail that points away from the Sun due to solar wind.
Does solar flares give comets their tail?
No, solar flares do not give comets their tails. The tail of a comet forms from the solar wind interacting with the comet's nucleus, causing gas and dust to be released and form a tail that points away from the Sun. Solar flares are bursts of energy from the Sun's surface and are not directly responsible for creating comet tails.
What is a star with a long tail called?
A star with a long tail is typically referred to as a comet. Comets are icy bodies that release gas and dust as they approach the Sun, forming a glowing coma and a tail that points away from the Sun due to solar wind and radiation pressure. The tail can appear quite elongated and is one of the most distinctive features of comets.
What three things are comets made of?
Comets are made of mainly 3 parts -dust tail, ion tail and coma
Is the tail of Halley's comet is always opposite to the sun?
A comet's ion (gas) tail always points directly away from the sun. Some comets also have a dust tail (antitail) which may curve slightly away to the side of the ion tail.
This has a tail when it is near to the sun?
Comets
