Many objects orbit the sun in the Kuiper belt. should such an object be called a comet if it does not have a tail? develop an argument to support your opinion.
first to answer ill name you brainliest!!!

Comets are cosmic snowballs of frozen gasses, rock and dust that orbit the sun. When frozen, they are the size of a small town. When a comet's orbit brings it close to the sun, it heats up and spews dust and gasses that form a tail that stretches away from the sun fr millions of miles. There are probably billions of comets orbiting our sun in the Kuiper Belt and even more distant Oort Cloud. Comets have right for its name and had best to orbit the sun in the Kuiper Belt.

the answer is false. this is because for ice to melt, it requires latent heat of melting. latent heat means heat energy required to change phase without any increase in temperatures. therefore, the ice will take energy from the environment to melt hence atmospheric temperatures will reduce.
