When the comet is closest to the Sun,
it has its maximum kinetic energy
and minimum gravitational potential energy. When the comet is far away from the Sun, it has maximum gravitational potential energy and minimal kinetic energy. It's faster when it's close because the Sun's gravity is pulling the comet closer. The opposite for when it gets farther away

riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

Option B. The planet is a very way from the center or the Sun.

Explanation:

If the surface temperature of the newly formed planet is - 20 K that means the distance of the planet from the sun in greater.

If we look at the temperature trends of the planets in our solar system, the planets closer to the sun like  Mercury, Venus have very high surface temperature but as we move move away from the the center of the solar system, i.e., Sun, the temperature goes on decreasing.
