A comet orbits a star in a strongly elliptical orbit. The comet and star are far from other massive objects. As the comet travels away from the star, how does the kinetic energy and potential energy of the system change?

Respuesta :

Answer:

the kinetic energy decreases and the potential energy Increases.

Explanation:

as the comet travels away from the star it gains an energy which it posses because of its position or state.once the comet moves away form the star the kinetic decreases until its lost all together to where the potential energy starts increasing.
