Macmillan Learning A planet is in an elliptical orbit around a distant star. At periastron (the point of closest approach to the star), the planet is rp = 3.90 × 108 km from the star and is moving with a speed of Up = 21.5 km/s. When the planet is at apastron (the point of greatest distance from the star), it is ra = 9.00 × 108 km from the star. "P Va = HH How fast is the planet moving at apastron? V km/s
