In 1992,a NASA team began a project called Spaceguard Survey, calling for an international watch for comets that might collide with Earth. Why is it more difficult to detect a possible “doomsday comet” with a hyperbolic orbit than one with an elliptical orbit?
In September 2009, Australian astronomer Robert H. McNaught discovered comet C/2009 R1 (McNaught). The orbit of this
comet is hyperbolic with the Sun at one focus. Because the orbit is not elliptical, the comet will not be captured by the
Sun's gravitational pull and instead will pass by the Sun only once. The comet reached perihelion on July 2, 2010. (Source:
Minor Planet Center, http://minorplanetcenter.net/)
The path of the comet can be modeled by the equation
(1191.2) (30.9)
where x and y are measured in AU (astronomical units).
a. Determine the distance (in AU) at perihelion. Round to 1 decimal place.
b. Using the rounded value from part (a), if 1 AU = 93,000,000 mi, find the distance in miles.
Perihelion
distance
(0, 0)
"Sun
Comet C has an elliptical orbit of eccentricity 0.9393 with the sun at one focus. The greatest distance of the comet from the sun is 2848 million mi. Find the least distance between the comet C and the sun.
The least distance between the comet C and the sun is
million mi.

Which comet has a more elongated orbit?arrow_forwardNabil is writing a science fiction novel that takes place in anothergalaxy. In her galaxy, all the planets travel in an elliptical orbitaround their star. The majority of the plot of Nabil’s story takesplace on the planet Tanus which orbits a star named Ini. Thelength of Tanus’ major axis is 150 million miles and the length ofits minor axis is 75 million miles. The star Ini is located at afocus of the elliptical orbit. Write an equation that models the movement of Tanus around its star. Explain how youdetermined your equation and show your work . Create a graph of Tanus’ movement around Ini using your equation from question 1. Labelyour graph with the position of the star and the planet. Suppose that Nabil would like to create a model that shows the path of Tanus’ orbit aroundIni. For ease of programming, Nabil would like Ini to be located at the coordinates (0, 0).

The eccentricity of the comet’s orbit is 0.967 and the eccentricity of the Earth’s orbit is 0.0167. The eccentricity for the Earth is close to zero, whereas the eccentricity for Halley’s Comet is close to 1. Based on this information, how do the orbits compare?arrow_forward

Estimate the value of E if M = 2 and e = 0.3 a) By performing two iterations using the bisection method. (a, = 1, bo = 3) b) By performing two iterations using Regula Falsi.(ao = 1, bo = 3) c) By performing two iterations using the Newton-Raphson method.
