Question

please be legible and neat with work.

Does it make sense? Decide whether the following statement is true or false - and explain your reasoning. If we could somehow replace the Sun with a Styrofoam ball that has precisely the same mass (but is MUCH larger), the Earth's orbit would not change. When on the space station (about 400km from Earth's surface). Astronauts are far enough away from the Earth that the gravitational force they feel is much less than on the surface. While on a space walk outside the Space Station, an astronaut lets go of the tool she is working with and it quickly floats away from her.

Explanation / Answer

a) true

distance of the orbit is dependent on the mass only so,

replacing the sun with any object of same mass will not change anything

b) true

c) true
