The distance of a planet from the sun is times the distance between the earth and the sun. The time period of the planet is:
1. | years | 2. | years |
3. | years | 4. | years |
A planet moves around the sun. At a point it is closest to the sun at a distance and has speed At another point when it is farthest from the sun at distance its speed will be:
1. | 2. | ||
3. | 4. |
If is the areal velocity of a planet of mass then its angular momentum is:
1. | 2. | ||
3. | 4. |
Kepler's third law states that the square of the period of revolution () of a planet around the sun, is proportional to the third power of average distance between the sun and planet i.e. , here is constant. If the masses of the sun and planet are and respectively, then as per Newton's law of gravitation, the force of attraction between them is here is the gravitational constant. The relation between and is described as:
