Physics question, : which of the following can you determine from the graph of the force of the sun on a comet? a) the force increases as the distance decreases. b) the force is sometimes zero. c) the force decreases as the distance decreases. d) the force does not depend on the distance.

Here, we are required to determine the relationship between the force exerted by the sun on a Comet and the distance between the sun and the comet.

From the graph, the force exerted by the sun on the comet increases as the distance between them decreases.

From the graph, it is evident that the slope of the graph is negative.

Although, the slope of the graph is not constant as in the case of linear graphs (equation of a straight line).

However, the positioning of the line joining all points on the graph suggests that the slope of the graph is negative.

Consequently, the parameters ( i.e the force and distance) are inversely proportional to one another.

Therefore, as the force increases, the distance decreases.
