When would the tail of a comet appear to become longer?(1 point) Responses as it gets farther from the sun as it gets farther from the sun as it gets closer to Earth as it gets closer to Earth as it gets closer to the sun as it gets closer to the sun as it gets farther from Earth

Answer 1

The tail of a comet would appear to become longer as it gets closer to the Sun. When a comet approaches the Sun, the heat causes the icy nucleus to sublimate, releasing gas and dust, which form the comet's tail. This tail always points away from the Sun due to the solar wind and radiation pressure.
