What does solar wind and its effect on a comet?
Solar wind makes a comet's tail always point away from the Sun.
How does the comet plasma work?
The Comet plasma is created by solar wind. The Comet plasma enables scientists to discover and understand what the solar wind is doing and is very useful.
How does a comet shine as it moves closer towards the sun?
the Sun's heat and radiation produce a wind called the Solar Wind, as a comet gets close to the Sun it begins to melt. ... This is when a comet begins to shine.
Why do comet's tailspoint away from the sun?
A comet's "tail", which is not really a tail, at all, it is a collection of ice molecules that the "solar wind" has blown off of the comet's surface. Naturally, the "tail" would then point away from the Sun. (The solar wind is actually a constant stream of extremely high speed, high energy subatomic particles that shoot out of the Sun continuously). We need a different name than "tail", don't we!
What is the maximum speed of the mercury comet automatic 6cyl 101hp 1962?
The maximum speed of the 1962 Mercury Comet is 81 mph.
How does the sun create a tail on a comet?
The sun creates a tail on a comet because of solar radiation and solar wind on the nucleus of the comet. A comet is an icy body that is seen when it passes close to the sun.
How fast do wind blow on Neptune wind storms?
it travels three times as fast as a comet
An anemometer is used to measure?
An anemometer is used for measuring the speed of wind,
Why does the coma of a comet grow as it nears the sun?
The tail of a comet, also known as its coma, grows as the comet gets close to the sun because of increases in temperature and force exerted by the solar wind. Since a comet's coma is usually composed of dust and vapor, the solar wind causes it to stream out away from the sun.
Where do the particles of energy of the comet come from?
The particles of energy in a comet mainly come from the solar wind interacting with the comet's nucleus and surrounding coma. The solar wind is a stream of charged particles emitted by the Sun that affects the comet's ion tail and can cause energy release through processes like ionization and excitation.
Is a wind vane considered as a wind speed?
No. A wind vane is an instrument that can tell wind speed but not wind direction.
Why is a comets tail is in front of the comet?
A comet's tail is always pointed away from the Sun due to the solar wind. As the comet moves closer to the Sun, solar radiation and solar wind push the dust and gas away from the comet, creating the tail that appears to extend ahead of the comet in its orbit.
