A small ball of mass m=0.60 kg hangs from a massless string of length l=0.9 m. The ball travels in a vertical circle and its speed at the bottom is v0=6.0 m/s (see figure). Neglect all friction and air drag, and use g=10m/s^2 for the gravitational acceler...

1. Sun-grazing comet ISON disintegrated on November, 2013. Observation of the comet suggested an elliptical orbit with period 581,480 years. What would this predict for the distance from the Sun at the orbit’s aphelion, the farthest point from the Sun?...
