A comet is the loose, icy body with a long, narrow orbit.
Comets are very small solar system body made mainly of ices mixed with smaller amounts of dust and rock. Most comets are not larger than a few kilometers across. The main body of the comet is called the nucleus, and it can contain water, methane, nitrogen and other ices. Their speeds vary depending on their orbits and where they are in it. The closer they are to the sun, the faster they are going.
Wavelength = (speed) / (frequency)
= (3 x 10⁸ m/s) / (1 x 10⁸ /s) = 3 meters
The correct answer is they get closer together
Going from gas into a liquid makes the molecules move closer together, which happens again when you turn it into a solid.
Answer:
x=0.46m, speed=7.9m/s
Explanation:
Using the concept of conservation of energy:
1. kinetic energy of mass m and velocity v: 
2. gravitational potential energy of mass m, grav. acc. g and height h: 
3. potential energy in a spring with spring constant k and displacement from equilibrium x: 
Calculating x:


Calculating the speed:
