​

Answer 1

I don't understand your question

Answer 2

The correct question: Which of the following statements is not true?

1. Objects in the Oort cloud contain large proportions of ice.

2. Objects in the asteroid belt are made mostly of rock and metal.

3. Objects in the asteroid belt and Kuiper belt orbit the Sun in nearly the same plane as the planets, but objects in the Oort cloud do not.

4. Objects in the Kuiper belt are made mostly of rock and metal.

The correct answer is option  (4). Objects in the Kuiper belt are made mostly of rock and metal.

• Kuiper belt objects include ice-covered objects, dwarf planets, dust, and comets.
• The region of the solar system outside of the planets is known as the Kuiper belt, and it stretches from Neptune's orbit (at 30 AU) to roughly 50 AU from the Sun.
• The majority of the observed short-period comets are thought to have originated from the belt.
• Scientists Dave Jewitt and Jane Luu found the Kuiper Belt Objects (KBOs) in 1992. The idea that the outer solar system is not completely empty is shared by Dave and Jane.
• Because of the belt's low surface temperatures, it is expected that the ice trapped during its formation should have survived the long history of the solar system.
• For significant compositional investigation, the majority of KBOs are too faint.
• By studying the Kuiper belt, scientists could be able to comprehend how planets and planetesimals were set up.
