Which one of the mechanism below can NOT be responsible for providing intrinsic luminosity for planets? Gravitational settling of the hydrogen molecules. Gravitational settling of the helium atoms. Residual heat dating from the formation epoch of the planets. Decay of radio-active isotopes like uranium.
According to the chart below, how do the gas giants differ from the terrestrial planets? THE TERRESTRIAL PLANETS THE GAS GIANTS MERCURY MARS JUPITER SATURN URANUS NEPTUNE VENUS EARTH ROCK ROCK ROCK ROCK INNER CORE INNER CORE CORE SIren/ Nickel CORE Iron/ WATER WATER WATER Nickel OUTER CORE OUTER CORE METALLIC U HYDROGEN METALLIC WATER MANTLE Reck HYDROGEN MANTLE Rock MANTLE Reck CORE SIren/ Silicates Silicates Silicates Nickel HYDROGEN GAS HYDROGEN GAS HYDROGEN HYDROGEN GAS GAS SURFACE SURFACE SURFACE SURFACE O The gas giants do not have solid surfaces. O The gas giants have an iron core. O The gas giants lack hydrogen gas. O The gas giants do not contain water.
Question 7 What type of mission collects information about multiple planets? Sample returns. Rovers. Flybys. Atmospheric probes. Question 8 Why are neutrinos so difficult to detect? There are very few of them, so collecting enough to study takes a long time. They are theoretical and may not exist. They move so fast they pass right through the telescope. They don't interact strongly with matter, so they will not cause a reaction on a CCD imager.
