A planet takes \(200\) days to complete one revolution around the Sun. If the distance of the planet from Sun is reduced to one fourth of the original distance, how many days will it take to complete one revolution?
Pick an option to check your answer.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(A) \(25\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\( \mathrm{T}^2 \propto \mathrm{r}^3 \)
\( \frac{\mathrm{T}_1^2}{\mathrm{r}_1^3}=\frac{\mathrm{T}_2^2}{\mathrm{r}_2^3} \)
\( \frac{(200)^2}{\mathrm{r}^3}=\frac{\mathrm{T}_2^2}{\left(\frac{\mathrm{r}}{4}\right)^3} \)
\( \frac{200 \times 200}{4 \times 4 \times 4}=\mathrm{T}_2^2 \)
\( \mathrm{~T}_2=\frac{200}{4 \times 2} \)
\( \mathrm{~T}_2=25 \text { days }\)
