How does the dwarf planet Ceres differ from the other dwarf planets?
Group of answer choices
Ceres is part of the asteroid belt while the other dwarf planets are part of the Kuiper Belt.
Ceres is made mostly of ices and dust while the other dwarf planets are solid rock.
Ceres orbits the Sun while the other dwarf planets orbit Neptune.
Ceres is at least 10 times as massive as the other dwarf planets.
The NASA mission, Clipper, will place a spacecraft in orbit around Jupiter in order to perform a detailed investigation of Europa. We are interested in Europa because there might be the probability that
Group of answer choices
the tidal pull Jupiter has on it theoretically will cause it to shatter.
some form of life exists within its ocean, below its icy surface.
the Galileo mission, while orbiting Jupiter, contaminated its surface, killing all micro-organisms.
the eruptions from the sulfur volcanoes have coated its icy surface with sulfur dioxide (an antioxidant on Earth).
As a comet travels through the inner solar system, the direction of the tail changes. This is because
Group of answer choices
the coma shrinks when the comet is nearest the Sun, where it is the hottest.
regardless of which direction the comet moves, the tails are attracted toward the Sun.
the comet loses its ion tail when it is nearest the Sun due to the Sun's magnetic field.
regardless of which direction the comet moves, the tails are directed away from the Sun.

Steam enters a turbine at a rate of 550 kg/hr. The steam enters the turbine at 28 atm and 350°C at a linear velocity of 55 m/s. The steam leaves the turbine at a point 3.5 m below the turbine inlet at atmospheric pressure and a velocity of 355 m/s. The turbine delivers shaft work at a rate of 50 kW, and the heat loss from the turbine is estimated to be 2250 kcal/hr.

While studying "flow through pipes" we say that "as area of cross section decreases then velocity increases in turn pressure gets 'decreased'.( that is pressure and velocity are inversely proportional).However while studying "Hagen poiseuilli equation", we say "pressure and velocity has linear relation and "directly proportional" to each other. Why two different statements,? please help me to understand it.(Fluid mechanics)
