The large round object you’re referring to is a dwarf planet, specifically Pluto. Unlike full-fledged planets, dwarf planets like Pluto have not cleared their orbital neighborhoods of other debris. This classification is part of the definition established by the International Astronomical Union (IAU) in 2006.

How is a dwarf planet different from an asteroid?

A dwarf planet is a celestial body that orbits the Sun and has enough mass for its gravity to form it into a spherical shape, but has not cleared its orbit of other debris. An asteroid is a small rocky body that orbits the Sun, typically found in the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter, and does not have enough mass to be considered a dwarf planet.


What region is being surrounded?

It appears that the region around the object is being surrounded.


What is the region around a charged object where the object and the electric force interacts with other charged objects called?

The region around a charged object where the object's electric field interacts with other charged objects is called the electric field or the influence region. This region determines the force that a test charge will experience if placed within it.


What is a region around a charged object where an electric force can be exerted on another object is?

The region around a charged object where an electric force can be exerted on another object is called the electric field. This field exists around any charged object and exerts a force on any other charged object placed within it.


How is a planet different from a dwarf planet and the moon?

A planet is bigger than a dwarf planet and the Moon. A planet revolves around the Sun directly in its own orbit, but so does a dwarf planet. However, the planet is the dominant object in its orbital region. A dwarf planet is not the dominant object. That's the important difference.


What causes the moon?

The moon is a natural satellite that revolves around the earth. It is believed that the moon formed out of a collapsing region of the protoplanetary disk.


What does cleared the neighborhood around its orbit mean?

the phrase ''Cleared the neighborhood around its orbit'' is part of the defentition of a planet, and means that it has to be big enough, and have enough gravity to get rid of any object in its orbit around a star or sun.


What is a region around a charged object where an electric force is present?

electric force


The region around a charge object where an electric force is present is called?

circuit


In what way does an orbit differ from an orbital?

An orbit is the path an object takes around another object, like a planet around a star. An orbital is the specific region around an atom where an electron is likely to be found.


What is a region around a charged object where the charged objects electric force is exerted on another charged objects?

The region around a charged object where the electric force is exerted on another charged object is called the electric field. It arises from the charged object creating a force on other charged objects in its vicinity based on their charges and distances from the source charge.


What region around a charged object is an electric?

The region around a charged object where electric forces are exerted on other charged objects is called an electric field. Electric fields emanate outward from positive charges and inward towards negative charges. The strength of the electric field decreases with distance from the charged object.
