<span>At this distance, and with an orbital speed of 24.077 km/s, Mars takes 686.971 Earth days, the equivalent of 1.88 Earth years, to complete a orbit around the Sun. This eccentricity is one of the most pronounced in the Solar System, with only Mercury having a greater one (0.205).

The particles of the medium (slinky in this case) move up and down (choice #2) in a transverse wave scenario.
This is the defining characteristic of transverse waves, like particles on the surface of water while a wave travels on it, or like particles in a slack rope when someone sends a wave through by giving it a jolt.
The other kind of waves is longitudinal, where the particles of the medium move "left-and-right" along the direction of the wave propagation. In the case of the slinky, this would be achieved by giving a tensioned slinky an "inward" jolt. You would see that such a jolt would give rise to a longitudinal wave traveling along the length of the tensioned slinky. Another example of longitudinal waves are sound waves.
Answer:
Answer is C
Explanation:
Let's say the pendulum starts swinging from its max height from the left. It then will go down and reach the equilibrium position, this will make it lose GPE while gaining KE (the loss in GPE = gain in KE). At the equilibrium position it has the max KE (max velocity) and minimum GPE. After passing the equilibrium it then starts to head up to the max height on the right, the pendulum gains GPE while losing KE and at the top will have minimum KE while having max GPE. Meaning throughout its joruney the total energy remains constant as
Total energy = KE + GPE
I have attached a simple diagram below, the y axis is the energy and x axis being the time (where t = 0 is the pendulum starting from max height left of the equilibrium). The green curve the the GPE and blue curve is KE. Red line shows that at all times the energy is constant.
Our solar system is the only place in the universe where gravity played a key part in the formation of planets.
