Question

Your answer is incorrect. Suppose instead that K + U<sub>g</sub> of the system is B. Which of the following statements are true? When the separation between the planet and star is $r_2$, the kinetic energy of the system is zero. When the separation between the planet and star is $r_2$, the potential energy of the system is zero. The planet and star cannot get farther apart than $r_2$. This is not a bound system; the planet can escape. Attempts: 4 of 10 used
