Which planet is the source of light that makes a comet visible?
From Earth it would be the Sun, which, however not a planet, but a star
What source of light makes comets visible?
Comets are visible because they reflect sunlight. As a comet travels closer to the Sun, the sunlight heats up the comet's surface, causing it to release gas and dust that form a glowing coma and tail. This reflected sunlight is what makes comets visible from Earth.
Does a comet emit visible light and infrared light?
A comet emits no light of its own, until close enough to be illuminated and stimulated by radiation from the sun.
Does a comet produce light?
Yes, a comet produces light as it travels through space. This light is mainly produced by the Sun's energy causing the comet's nucleus to release gas and dust particles, which reflect sunlight and create a glowing tail.
Can a comet go a light year in 1 second?
No. A light year is the distance light travels in a year, and nothing can travel faster than light. Therefore, the quickest that anything could travel a light year is 1 year. A comet travels much slower than light.

What is the possessive form of comet?
The possessive form of the noun comet is comet's. Example: The comet's appearance was calculated for three AM.
How is the bright tail of a comet produced?
A comet's tail is formed when the Sun's radiation and the pressure of light drive the very thin gases and very small particles that form the head of a comet away from the head.
What is source light?
A light source is a form of energy produced by heat.
Is white paper a form of a light source?
No
What colour is a comet?
the color of a comet is light blue or dark blue
Do comets give off their own light?
Comets do not emit their own light; instead, they reflect sunlight. When a comet approaches the Sun, the heat causes its icy nucleus to sublimate, releasing gas and dust that form a glowing coma and tail. This process makes the comet visible from Earth, but the light we see is primarily due to sunlight reflecting off the comet's material.
How did Halley's comet form?
God Created Halley's comet.

What do you call an area where direct light form a light source is blocked by object?
A shadow.
