The more matter you have, the stronger the gravity. Some matter looks lumpy (like, say, an asteroid) because gravity cannot fully overcome the mechanical structure of the matter. (Hey, silicates are rigid, donchaknow?) <br /><br />Now, how much mass that is depends on what the matter is. Icy bodies, like you'd find out near Pluto, would need less mass than, say, rocky bodies, found closer to the Sun. But on average, you're looking at about 6 x 10^20 kg, or about 132,000,000,000,000,000,000 pounds of matter. That would be about 400-600 km in diameter, give or take.<br /><br />Her Grace, Heidi from <a href="http://romancespinners.blogspot.com/2017/04/r-is-for-radio-waves.html" rel="nofollow">Romance Spinners</a>, where we're A to Z-ing about Astronomy.Her Grace, Heidi, the Duchess of Knealehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17818060864422019573noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5543614215564347323.post-25398059283790214092017-04-20T19:57:39.747-07:002017-04-20T19:57:39.747-07:00Thank you for the super additions to the list...

Which came first, the chicken or the egg? I believe it was the egg. All the things in nature evolved from cells, and an egg feels like a concentration of cells. π£<br />2. Why do people always "fall" in love? Not rise? Because they have no control over it, it's beyond them. Like gravity.<br />3. Why does around pizza always come in a square box? Square boxes are easier to make and store, I guess. Question is: why don't they fill the boxes with square pizza? We actually have to pay for the empty space?<br />4. Why the term "sleep like a baby" when babies actually wake up every 2 hours? Because we do the same? Without noticing of course. Babies look so peaceful when they're asleep, and that's how we feel after a good night's rest. Not that I knew anything about that!!!<br />5. Why is yawning contagious? It's a game. Everybody waits for the other person to yawn FIRST, so they can finally follow and claim it was contagious. Because nobody got a good night's sleep, see previous question. π΄<br />6. How did language originate? People always felt the need to "name" stuff. They came up with sounds because they ran out of matches to create smoke signals ;-)))) Getting silly here, forgive me. π<br />7. Why do nights "fall" and days "break"? That's only the case in English, in my language nights and days just START. Actually that's not true, if we want to be fancy, we use "break" as well, for both, though.<br />8. Why do magnets only attract certain metals? The other metals used to be attracted by magnets, too, but over time they didn't like it anymore and the Brexited. π¬π§ πͺπΊ<br />9. Why do we dream? So we have something to try and remember all day!<br /><br />Why is there no number 10?

Which came first, the chicken or the egg? Egg came first! Well Dinosaurs laid eggs too right<br />2. Why do people always "fall" in love? Not rise? Love hurts many, so they fall, they get hurt..Taada Imma genius<br />3. Why does around pizza always come in a square box? To decieve innocent people, Fat disguised as taste<br />4. Why the term "sleep like a baby" when babies actually wake up every 2 hours? Coz babies look cute when they sleep<br />5. Why is yawning contagious? Lack of oxygen causes yawn, so many people in the same place will have lack of oxygen and hence it looks contagious<br />6. How did language originate? People were bored and wanted to communicate and drawing things everytime was tiring and time consuming<br />7. Why do nights "fall" and days "break"? Nights fall coz we fall flat and sleep, days break coz we break-out from that sleep (My soopar logic)<br />8. Why do magnets only attract certain metals? (Magnets are choosy)<br />9. Why do we dream? (Coz sometimes they look better that reality)<br /><br /><a href="http://mrsdashsayss.blogspot.in/search/label/APOM" rel="nofollow">A Peice Of My Life</a>Deepahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16764125425140331692noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5543614215564347323.post-65992766973753275392017-04-20T01:46:55.722-07:002017-04-20T01:46:55.722-07:00Misspelt your name Karnika....sorry for thatπMisspelt your name Karnika....sorry for thatπAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17123727611003668906noreply@blogger.com
