A planet of mass ‘m’ moves around the sun of mass “M” i an elliptical orbit. The maximum and minimum distance of planet from the sun are r and r’ respectively. The time period of planet is proportional to (a) r+r’ (b) (r+r’)^1/2 (c)(r-r’)^3/2 (d) (r+r’)^3/2 Please help

Question

Arun · Answer

Dear student According to Kepler's law T² is proportional to cube of semi major axis of elliptical orbit. Now semi major axis = (r + r')/2 T² is proportional to [(r +r')/2]³ T is proportional to [(r + r')/2 ] 3/2 Hence option D is correct. Regards Arun (askIITians forum expert)
