What part or parts of a comet come and go during a comet's orbit?
The tail. The tail is composed of gas and dust released from the comet nucleus when it approaches the Sun. Comet tails can be incredibly long, some as long as 150 million kilometers. As the comet recedes out into the Solar System away from the warmth of the Sun, it stops shedding dust and gas and the comet loses its tail.
How does a comet develop a tail?
a comet gets a tail as it gets closer to the sun, due to solar winds.
What happens to earths oribit speed as it gets closer to the sun?
As Earth gets closer to the Sun during its elliptical orbit, its orbital speed increases due to the stronger gravitational pull from the Sun. This increased speed helps Earth compensate for the increased gravitational force and maintain its orbit around the Sun.
What happens to a plant's speed when it gets closer to the sun?
tempatures start to rise . and alot of diffrent things lol (:
How does the temperature of the planet vary with the sun?
The temperature of a planet varies with the distance from the sun because the sun is hot and the closer something is to the sun, the hotter the object gets. The further away the planet from the sun, the colder the planet.

What are the icy objects with huge trials that orbit the sun?
Tails, not trials. They're called comets, and their "tails" form when the comet gets near the sun, vaporizing away some of the ice.
What happens to the earth orbit speed as it gets closer to the sun?
It increases.
What will happen if the sun gets slightly closer to the Earth?
The earth will get warmer.
Why are Canada climates generally colder than those in the us?
Canada is closer to the North Pole, which gets much less sun energy and the USA is closer to the Equator which gets maximum energy from the sun.
How does a comet develop a tail?
a comet gets a tail as it gets closer to the sun, due to solar winds.
How does the revolution of the earth around the sun cause the seasons?
The farther the sun gets away from the earth, the colder it is, that is WInter and Fall. The closer it gets the warmer it gets. That is Spring and Summer.
What are some What are facts about comets?
As a comet gets closer to the sun its speed increases.
What kind of body in space has a long tail?
A comet - as it gets closer to the sun.
Why are there different day lenghts in different seasons?
in summer the earth is closer to the sun so it gets more daylight (sun). in winter the sun is further away from the sun so it gets less daylight.
What do the seasons have to do with the earth?
It is because the sun is on the other side of the earth so it does not give of to much so there for you got winter but when the sun gets closer it gets warmer.
What happens to the climate the closer you getting the equator?
it gets a lot warmer.. because you are closer to the sun (due to the earth's round shape)
