MCQ
A planet is revolving around the sun as shown in elliptical path

The correct option is

  • The time taken in travelling $DAB$ is less than that for $BCD$
  • B
    The time taken in travelling $DAB$ is greater than that for $BCD$
  • C
    The time taken in travelling $CDA$ is less than that for $ABC$
  • D
    The time taken in travelling $CDA$ is greater than that for $ABC$

Answer

Correct option: A.
The time taken in travelling $DAB$ is less than that for $BCD$
a
(a) During path $DAB$ planet is nearer to sun as comparison with path $BCD$. So time taken in travelling $DAB$ is less than that for $BCD$ because velocity of planet will be more in region $DAB.$
