True or false? The asteroid belt is inside the Sun’s Roche limit and thus could not overcome the Sun’s tidal forces to form a planet.
True or false? The time interval when a specific comet’s tail is long is much less than the time interval when that comet’s tail is short.
True or false? The asteroid belt was probably produced when two large, fully formed terres-trial planets collided with and shattered each other.
True or false? Most meteor showers occur when a random comet or asteroid enters Earth’s atmosphere and then breaks up into many pieces.
True or false? Most of the Kuiper-belt objects are between the orbits of Neptune and the Oort cloud.
True or false? The peculiar distribution of certain types of
Kuiper-belt objects suggests the gravitational influence of a very
distant, massive “Planet Nine” that astronomers are now trying to
find.

We are in a parallel universe where you have a mass of 70 kg. In
these hard times (apparently the Corona virus is here too), you
decided to rob a bank and Spiderman caught you. Thats not good. You
try to run away. Before Spiderman's spider string catches you, you
are traveling at a speed of 4 m/s. The initial attachment of the
spider string immediately slows you down to a speed of 1 m/s. You
are still running away, albeit slower. What is the magnitude of the
impulse you experience from the spider string.
