Answer:
True
Explanation:
The attached image shows a table that displays the eight (8) planets, their respective average distance from the sun and their respective orbital speeds.
The question only relates the orbital speed of planets Uranus and Venus, which is 7km/s and 35km/s respectively.
40% of the orbital speed of planet Venus is:
= 40/100 × 35
= 0.4 × 35
= 14
According to the table in the image, Uranus orbits around the sun at a speed of 7km/s, which is lesser than 40% of Venus's orbital speed (14km/s).
Therefore, it is TRUE that Uranus orbits the sun at less than 40% of the orbital speed of Venus.
