Part C A comet’s plasma tail always pointsdirectly away from the Sun because __________.
form a tail and some time later form acoma. form a coma and some time later form atail always form a tail, but only sometimes form acoma

Explanation / Answer

form a tail and some time later form a coma. sunlight reflects off the comet’s tail and coma of pressure exerted by the fast-moving charged particles inthe solar wind
