question 149

Multiple Choice

The Saturnian satellite Pan moves along the Encke gap. Suppose a rock is orbiting within the gap at an orbital radius slightly smaller than that of Pan. Which one of these passages correctly describes the interaction between Pan and the rock?

• C) The rock catches up to and passes Pan. As it does so, Pan pulls the rock forward, making it move faster and causing it to move into an orbit with a larger radius.
