Assume a comet is traveling at a constant velocity in deep space. Why would it speed up as it approaches our solar system?

Physics

D
The comet has no net force acting on it, which results in constant velocity. Near our solar system, the influence of the gravitational forces due to the sun and the planets will increase as we know that gravitational force is:
F = GMm/r²
The net force will produce an acceleration on the comet, which will cause its velocity to change.

ANTONII [103]

Answer:

This is true,the rod with smaller elastic modulus will stretch more than larger elastic modulus.

Explanation:

σ=E*ε

ε=δ/L

σ=E*δ/L

δ=(σ*L)/E

σ=F/A

δ=(F*L)/(A*E)

As Force,Area and Length is same

δ∞1/E

From the expression as E increase δ will be small,so there will be more stretch for smaller elastic modulus.
