A comet
Because the sunlight is reflecting off them at different points.
Or "face away," maybe? A comet's tail always points away from the Sun, because it is blown that direction by ions streaming out from the Sun (solar winds). So, whenever a comet is moving away from the Sun, its tail will stream ahead of it.
As a comet approaches the sun, it typically develops a bright coma (cloud of gas and dust) and a tail that points away from the sun due to solar radiation. The heat from the sun causes the ice in the comet to vaporize and release dust particles, creating these features.
The smallest part of a comet is likely the dust particles that make up its coma, which is the cloud of gas and dust that surrounds the comet's nucleus. These dust particles can be as small as a few micrometers in size.
Eyelids and eyelashes protect the inner eye from dust by acting as barriers to prevent particles from entering the eye. Additionally, tears help to wash away any dust that may come in contact with the eye.
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.
No. Comets tails always point away from the sun. I believe the are a result of the heat and solar winds projected out from the sun which strip material off from the comet as it travels through space.
Comet tails always stream away from the sun due to the solar wind, which is a stream of charged particles emitted by the sun. The solar wind pushes against the gas and dust particles in the comet's coma (a cloud of gas and dust surrounding the nucleus) and causes them to form a tail that points away from the sun.
No, a comet's tail always points away from the sun regardless of the comet's direction of movement. This is due to the solar wind pushing gas and dust particles away from the comet's nucleus, creating the tail that always faces away from the sun.
An ion tail is made of electrically charged particles and a dust tail is made of dust. Also, an ion tail will always point away from the sun because of the solar winds, while a dust tail tends to follow the comet's orbit and doesn't always point away from the sun.
From: http://www.windows.ucar.edu/tour/link=/comets/tail.html&edu=high : One tail is due to the comet's dust particles, the other is due to ionized gas from the comet coma. Dust particles form the first tail. The only force which affects these small particles in space is corpuscular radiation from the Sun itself. This radiation pushes the tiny dust particles in the direction from which they came, the way wind can blow rain droplets at an angle. Cometary dust particles can be thought of as billowing up from the comet's surface. Thus, this comet tail generally points back along the comet trajectory. Ions (electrically charged particles), which first come from the nucleus as (neutral) gaseous particles, are swept into the second comet tail by interaction with the Interplanetary Magnetic Field (IMF). The IMF, or magnetic field of the sun, which is present everywhere in interplanetary space, sweeps past the comet nucleus and carries the ions with it to form the tail. Because of this special interaction with the IMF, this tail always points directly away from the Sun"
Comets' tails typically point away from the sun due to the solar wind pushing the gas and dust particles released from the comet's nucleus. The ion tail is affected by the solar wind's electrically charged particles, while the dust tail is affected by radiation pressure from sunlight.
Yes, a comet's tail always points away from the sun due to the solar wind. As the comet travels in its orbit, the pressure of the solar wind pushes the gas and dust in the tail away from the sun, creating the iconic tail that points in the opposite direction of the comet's movement.
Before rain occurs there are a lot of dust particles present on the stomata's of the leaf of the plant. As there are dust particles on it they look dull and dark. After rain occurs the dust particles are washed away. The dullness is gone when it is washed away. If rain doesn't occur the the plant may die due to suffocation.
No, a comet's tail always faces away from 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.
