The distance from the planet Pluto to the Sun is 4.43 × 10° km at
perihelion and 7.37 x 10° km at aphelion. Find the eccentricity of Pluto's
orbit.
Jupiter orbits the Sun in an elliptical path with the Sun at one focus. At perihelion, Jupiter is closest to the Sun at 7.4052 × 108 km. If the eccentricity of the orbit is 0.0489, determine the distance at aphelion (farthest point between Jupiter and the Sun). Round to the nearest million km.
The moon’s orbit around the Earth is elliptical with the Earth at one focus and with eccentricity 0.0549. If the distance between the moon and Earth at the closest point is 363,300 km, determine the distance at the farthest point. Round to the nearest 100 km.
