Answer the following statement(s) true (T) or false (F)

1. The sun’s mass is about 1000 times that of Jupiter, and the radius of Jupiter’s orbit is about 1100 times the sun’s radius. The center of mass of the sun/Jupiter system is inside the sun. 2. Two stars, one with radius r and the other with radius 3r, orbit each other so that their centers of mass are 25r apart. Assume that the stars have the same uniform density. This system’s center of mass is inside the larger star. 3. Kepler’s 2nd law applies to hyperbolic orbits. 4. Kepler’s 3rd law applies to hyperbolic orbits.
