A planet revolves around the sun in an elliptical orbit. The linear speed of the planet will be maximum at
- A \(\mathrm{D}\)
- B \(\mathrm{B}\)
- C \(\mathrm{A}\)
- D \(C\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) \(\mathrm{A}\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
From Kepler's second law of planetary motion, the linear speed of a planet is maximum, when its distance from the sun is least, ie, at point \(A\).
