The existence of the planet pluto was proposed based on irregularities in neptune's orbit. pluto was subsequently discovered near its predicted position. but it now appears that the discovery was fortuitous, since pluto is small and the irregularities in neptune's orbit were not well known. answer the following to illustrate that pluto has a minor effect on the orbit of neptune compared with other planets.(a) calculate the acceleration of gravity at neptune due to pluto when they are 5.00 ✕ 1012 m apart. the mass of pluto is 1.4 ✕ 1022 kg. m/s2(b) calculate the acceleration of gravity at neptune due to uranus, when they are 2.50 ✕ 1012 m apart. the mass of uranus is 8.62 ✕ 1025 kg. m/s2 give the ratio of this acceleration to that due to pluto. (acceleration from part (b) / acceleration due to pluto)

Researchers determine that the biodiversity in a woodland region is declining. they identify two major threats to the region's biodiversity, a method to address each threat, and the expected outcome of each method. this information is shown in the table. a) reforestation would not benefit many species because most forest species live on the ground. b) reforestation would take the longest time to be effective because trees take several years to grow. c) biological augmentation would benefit only a few species because is is typically not very effective. d) biological augmentation would take less time to ve effective because it targets the majority of prey species.
