Suppose that the clay balls model the growth of a planetesimal at various stages during its accretion. Choose the planetesimal that is most likely to pull in debris particle A.

Consider the orbit of a typical comet around the sun, which is marked at five different positions, s, z, u, x , and p. sun a b x z p s u using kepler's second law of planetary motion, rank those positions in order of their relative speeds, with the position for the fastest speed first.

Light from the sun reaches the earth in 8.3 minutes. the velocity is 3.00 x 10^8 m/s. how far is earth from the sun? i know how to get to d = (3 x 10^8 m/s)(498 sec). i just don't know how to get from there to the answer being 1.5 x 10^11 m.

Red light strikes a metal surface and electrons are ejected. if violet light is now used with a 10% greater intensity, what will happen to the ejection rate (number of ejected electrons per second) and the maximum energy of the electrons? a) greater ejection rate; same maximum energyb) same ejection rate; greater maximum energyc) greater ejection rate; greater maximum energyd) same ejection rate; same maximum energye) none of the above answers are correct
