Knowledge of r = r1 r2
determines the motion of
each object about center of
mass with position.

1. is constant.
2. changes throughout the motion
because the speed changes.
3. changes throughout the motion
because the distance from O changes.
4. changes throughout the motion
because the angle changes.
5. Not enough information to decide.
6. We had the angular momentum quiz
last Friday so I dont need to think
about it anymore.

1. is constant.
2. changes throughout the motion
because the speed changes.
3. changes throughout the motion
because the distance from O
changes.
4. is not constant because the orbit is
not zero hence the central force
does work.
5. Not enough information to decide.
