Question 5
Two scientists are attempting to determine whether an object is a comet or an asteroid. The table lists the questions they have and their observations.
Question Answer
Where was the object observed? the Oort cloud
What is the object made of? dust and ice
Does the object have a visible tail? no
Scientist 1 determines that the object is a comet while Scientist 2 determines that the object is an asteroid. Which scientist is correct and why?
(1 point)
Scientist 1 is correct. Because comets are made of dust and ice, comets are more likely to be found in the Oort cloud than asteroids, and a comet would not develop a visible tail that far away from the Sun.
