What is the area of the solar system where comets are found?
Comets can be located anywhere, but the further you get away from the sun, the more common they are (they are made up of ice and cold rock).
The area of the solar system in which comets are locates?
The Oort Cloud is the answer.
Area of the solar system which comets are located?
Most of them are moving slowly out beyond the orbit of Neptune, in the kuiper belt. Longer term comets are thought to also be as far out as the Oort cloud.
What is the comet origin?
Comets are thought to originate from two main regions in the solar system: the Kuiper Belt, located beyond Neptune, and the Oort Cloud, which is much farther out. Comets are made of ice, rock, and organic compounds, and they develop tails when they come close to the sun and start to vaporize.
Where are Comets usually found?
Comets can be formed anywhere in space. They are mainly composed of ice and dust, which can be acquired from anywhere in space i.e pieces of chipped planets or random space particle. Hope this was helpful x]
Area of solar system in which comets are located?
comets are on the outside of the solor system but loop in from the sun I believe from astronimical studies in 8th grade, (which my annoying science teacher practically crammed down my throat for a couple of months) there is a large belt of comets just past Pluto.
Do all-stars have solar systems?
well most stars have solar systems, if they are large enough they would have a larger gravitational pull causing other planets to come in its "area" which would basically create a solar system.
What is located beyond Neptune's orbit?
There are two regions in the solar system past Neptune, both of which contain icy planetoids. The inner area is called the "Kuiper Belt", and includes objects which are in relatively stable orbits around the Sun. Farther out, the "scattered disc" region is thought to be the origin of periodic comets, bodies which have been disturbed by Neptune's gravity and enter the inner solar system.
What is the largest valcano in the solar system?
Olympus Mons is the largest valcano in the solar system. it is located on Mars
Where are comets and asteroids most likely to be found?
Comets are constantly entering and leaving the inner solar system. However, scientists have theorized that many comets are gathered in a wide area far beyond the planets of the solar system, in a location called the Oort Cloud (for Danish astronomer Jan Hendrik Oort). According to this theory, a huge spherical region surrounds the solar system at a distance of up to 1 light year (50,000 AU) from the Sun. Tiny gravitational effects of the Sun and planets (or even other stars) would pull comets from the region on an irregular but continual basis. Once comets passed the orbit of Neptune, some would be trapped by gravity and continue to orbit the Sun, with periods of from a few years to several hundred years, until they were either ejected, evaporated, or collided with a larger body. Cometary collisions are one possible source for the water on the early Earth.
What is the name for the part of the solar system where life can be supported and what planets are located there?
The Goldylocks area of our solar system includes Earth. Venus and Mercury are too hot. Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Neptune and Uranus are too cold.
Where did the comets or Kuiper Belt Objects form?
Comets and Kuiper Belt Objects (KBOs) primarily formed in the outer regions of the early solar system, beyond the orbit of Neptune. This region, known as the Kuiper Belt, is a disk-shaped area filled with icy bodies and debris that were leftover from the solar system's formation. These objects formed from the primordial material that failed to coalesce into larger planets, resulting in a diverse population of small icy bodies. Over time, some of these objects were perturbed into orbits that brought them closer to the Sun, where they became observable as comets.
