A comet is in an elliptical orbit around the Sun. Its closest approach to the Sun is a distance of 5 1010 m (inside the orbit of Mercury), at which point its speed is 9 104 m/s. Its farthest distance from the Sun is far beyond the orbit of Pluto. What is its speed when it is 6 1012 m from the Sun? (This is the approximate distance of Pluto from the Sun.) speed = ______m/s

omets travel around the sun in elliptical orbits with large
eccentricities. If a comet has speed 2.0×104 m/s when at
a distance of 2.4×1011 m from the center of the sun,
what is its speed when at a distance of 6.0×1010 m .

A comet moves about the Sun in an elliptical orbit, with its closest approach to the Sun being about 0.620 AU and its greatest distance from the sun being 35.5 AU (1 AU = the Earth-Sun distance). If the comet's speed at closest approach is 54.0 km/s, what is its speed when it is farthest from the Sun? (The gravitational force exerted by the Sun on the comet is parallel to the moment arm, so exerts no torque. Therefore, angular...
