A comet in an extremely elliptical orbit about a star has, of course, a maximum orbit radius. By comparison, its minimum orbit radius may be nearly 0. Make plots of the potential energy and a plausible total energy E versus radius on the same set of axes. Identify the classical turning points on your plot.
