1. A comet of mass m is in an elliptical orbit around a star of mass M. At the closest point of its orbit, point P, the comet is a distance D from the center of the star, and at the farthest point, point A, the distance is 3D. You may disregard the presence of all other celestial bodies. Derive an expression for the change in the comet’s kinetic energy as it moves from point P to point A, in terms of system parameters and constants. Does the comet have its greatest speed at point A or point P?

Abox that has self-contained cable clamps holds two light switches. a two-wire no. 12 cable with ground feeds the box, and a pair of two-wire no. 12 cables (four conductors) with ground wires leaves the box to feed the light fixtures. the second switch is fed by a no. 12 jumper wire from the first switch. which one of the following box combinations would furnish the minimum allowable volume? a. two 3-inch × 2-inch × 21⁄2-inch gangable device boxes b. two 3-inch × 2-inch × 11⁄2-inch gangable device boxes c. two 3-inch × 2-inch × 23⁄4-inch gangable device boxes d. two 3-inch × 2-inch × 21⁄4-inch gangable device boxes
