Average distance of the Earth from the Sun is \(L_{1}\) : If one year of the Earth \(=D\) days, one year of another planet whose average distance from the Sun is \(L_{2}\) will be

  1. A \(D\left(\frac{L_{2}}{L_{1}}\right)^{\frac{1}{2}}\) days
  2. B \(D\left(\frac{L_{2}}{L_{1}}\right)^{\frac{3}{2}}\) days
  3. C \(D\left(\frac{L_{2}}{L_{1}}\right)^{\frac{2}{3}}\) days
  4. D \(D\left(\frac{L_{2}}{L_{1}}\right)\) days
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(D\left(\frac{L_{2}}{L_{1}}\right)^{\frac{3}{2}}\) days

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

By Keplar's law, \[ \begin{array}{l} T^{2} \propto R^{3} \\ T=D\left(\frac{L_{2}}{L_{1}}\right)^{3 / 2} \end{array} \]
