Gravitation Question 296

Question: A planet revolves about the sun in elliptical orbit. The areal velocity $ [\left( \frac{dA}{dt} \right)] $ of the planet is$ [4.0\times 10^{16} m/s] $ . The least distance between planet and the sun is$ [2\times 10^{12}m] $ . Then the maximum speed of the planet in km/s is

Options:

A) 10

B) 20

C) 30

D) 40

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: D

Solution:

  • $ [\frac{L}{2m}=\frac{dA}{dt}] $ (L= angular momentum) $ [\frac{m{v_{\max }}{r_{\min }}}{2m}=\frac{dA}{dt};{v_{\max }}=\frac{2dA/dt}{{r_{\min }}}=40] $
