What are Kepler's laws? That's what you need for this problem.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Yes I know that. I'm guessing I would also need the mass of the sun, the equaion related two masses m1 and m2 to gravity and the distance between the earth and the sun?
OpenStudy (jamesj):
The earth rotates the sun every 1.0 years. Use Keplers laws to find the mean distance of the Comet as a multiple of the earth's orbit. Then multiple that number by the earth's orbit in kms.
