Why do comets develop a tail?
because of their velocity
Why does an asteroid not develop a tail when its closer to the sun?
Comets develop a tail as the sun's energy vaporizes substances such as ice and dry ice that form the comet. Asteroids lack these substances and so do not devlop tails.
Do comets or asteroids have a gas tail?
Comets!
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.
What are asteroid sized objects that develop a huge bright tail when they come near the sun?
Asteroid-sized objects that develop a bright tail when they approach the sun are known as comets. Unlike asteroids, comets are composed largely of ice, dust, and rocky material. When they near the sun, the heat causes the ice to vaporize, creating a glowing coma and a tail that always points away from the sun due to solar wind. This distinctive tail can be quite striking, making comets visible even from Earth.
What has a frozen nucleus and can develop a glowing tail?
A comet has a frozen nucleus and can develop a glowing tail when it gets close to the Sun. The heat from the Sun causes the icy nucleus of the comet to release gas and dust, which forms a glowing tail as it reflects sunlight.
What three things are comets made of?
Comets are made of mainly 3 parts -dust tail, ion tail and coma
This has a tail when it is near to the sun?
Comets
Where do you find comets?
Comets are typically found in the outer regions of the solar system, beyond the orbit of Neptune. They can be observed from Earth when they come closer to the sun and develop a visible tail due to the solar wind. Astronomers track comets using telescopes and space missions.
What did the tail of comet points?
A Comets tail points away from the sun.
Do comets and asteroids both develop glowing tails near the sun?
no, only comets develop glowing tails.Fun Fact:some scientists called comets "dirty snowballs"
A comets tail points is where?
Away from the Sun.
