A space probe is sent (from the surface of the Earth) to intercept a comet when it is at a distance
of 3 × 10^11 m from the Sun. Find the minimum energy required to move a 100-kg payload to
that location. [MEarth = 6 × 10^24 kg; REarth = 6.37 × 10^6 m; MSun = 2.0 × 10^30 kg; radius of
Earth’s orbit = 1.5 × 10^11 m.]
