Which sentence in the passage can be used to conclude that eris is a dwarf planet and not a planet?
eris takes about 557 earth years to orbit the sun. it has a mean surface temperature of about 40 kelvin. it has a nearly spherical shape. it has several other objects in its orbit, though few are as massive as itself. eris is too far away and small to be clearly visible from the earth. scientists used its moon, dysnomia, to measure it. eris is believed to be slightly more massive than pluto. however, both of them are smaller than earth’s moon. eris orbits the sun directly; it is not a satellite of another planet or dwarf planet.

Asheet of steel 1.5 mm thick has nitrogen atmospheres on both sides at 1200oc and is permitted to achieve a steady-state diffusion condition. the diffusion coefficient for nitrogen in steel at this temperature is 6 x 10- 11 m2 /s, and the diffusion flux is found to be 1.2 x 10-7 kg/m2 -s. also, it is known that the concentration of nitrogen in the steel at the high-pressure surface is 4 kg/m3 . how far into the sheet from this high-pressure side will the concentration be 2.0 kg/m3 ? assume a linear concentration profile.
