Respuesta :

Answer:

The maximum remaining life span of Halley's Comet is 76 years

Explanation:

orbital period t= 76 years

Mass of comet  M =100 million tons

Mass of material lost m=100 Millions tons

The maximum remaining life span of Halley's Comet is

[tex]L=\frac{M}{m} t\\L=\frac{100\times 10^6}{100\times 10^6} 76\\L=76 years[/tex]
