Why do comets leave your solar system?

Answer 1

For scientific purposes, they can be studied to help understand components in the solar system and its history. They are normally of a different form of rock that you find on Earth, and are believed to be left over remnants from the formation of planets in our solar system.

Answer 2

I think that if we didn't know that meteoroids existed we wouldn't be aware of a meteoroid hitting the earth,but some scientist believe that somehow a big cloud clashed and made the solar system.Ofcourse god made it,but we wouldn't know how there was craters in the moon if we didnt know about meteroids.There just as important as planets

Answer 3

In its wake, a comet approaching the Sun will trail a "tail" behind it, which consists of particles blown off the comet when some of its icy gases thawed and expanded. The tail will generally point "away" from the Sun, even when the comet is also moving away, because the released particles are pushed outward by the solar wind.

Answer 4

Comets and Asteroids travel the solar system for the same reason the plants do, they just follow a different path. Asteroids are mostly orbiting the sun in between Earth and Mars in the Asteroid belt. While planets follow an elliptical path, comets follow a more elongated one. Comets that orbit the sun once every 200 years are called short period comets, for example the comet Haley. The comets that have orbital periods longer than 200 years are called long period comets and spend more time out by the Oort cloud. Since the sun is the body in our solar system with the greatest amount of mass it attracts all other bodies with smaller masses to it. One important formula to keep in mind is Newtons Universal law describing gravitation, F= G(M*m)/r^2, Where F is the attractive gravitational force between two objects of mass M and m separated by a distance r. G is just a constant. This is why comets and asteroids travel around the solar system and more specifically our sun!:)

Answer 5

because asteroids can be from the dino ages and you can study the mould if ther is any Comets and asteroids are the remnants of the early solar system. These objects are some of the oldest materials in the solar system and because they remain in the vaccum of space they are relatively unchanged from that time. So to study them we are able to discern the composition of the early solar system. These objects are what the planets formed from. So to understand how earth came to be covered in water it helps to study the composition of asteroids and comets and see how much water is stored in them.

Answer 6

Comets have their orbits calculated from measurements of their positions when they become visible. The orbits can be elliptical, parabolic or hyperbolic (all conic sections). The ones with hyperbolic orbits have arrived from outside the solar system and are on a one-time visit, provided they are not captured by going too close to one of the planets.

In fact, gravitational forces acting on a comet can cause it to be ejected from the solar system. It may seem strange that a force of attraction can cause a comet toleave the solar system, but mathematics shows this certainly happens.

Answer 7

if we didn't,we would get blown up like Japan...

Answer 8

Because scientists study these objects to learn the composition of the solar system

Answer 9

They are because they are parts of a planet or space material that stays or floats around in space

Answer 10

Comets don't move in circles at all; like all orbiting bodies, they move in ellipses.
