MULTIPLE CHOICE QUESTION

1 min • 5 pts

A newly discovered comet, named Comet Celestia, has orbital characteristics similar to those of Comet Halley. It travels in an elliptical orbit around the sun, visiting Earth approximately once every 80 years. Given that Comet Celestia's perihelion distance is 1.2 × 10^8 km and its aphelion distance is 6.5 × 10^9 km, calculate the length of the semi-major axis of Comet Celestia's elliptical orbit.

7.8 × 10^9 km
2.1 × 10^9 km

3.31 × 10^9 km

4.5 × 10^9 km

Ganymede, one of Jupiter's largest moons, orbits the planet at a distance of 10.7 astronomical units (AU) from Jupiter's center. If Io, another moon of Jupiter, is 4.2 AU away from Jupiter's center and has an orbital period of 1.8 Earth-days, predict Ganymede's orbital period in Earth-days using Kepler's third law.

A 2.00-kg block is attached to a spring, allowing it to move horizontally on a frictionless surface. The spring has a force constant of 196 N/m. If the block is released from a position 0.05 m away from the equilibrium position, determine the frequency (f)f the resulting oscillations in the spring-mass system.

f≈1.45Hz

f≈1.12Hz

f≈2.14Hz

f≈1.58Hz
