$A$ planet revolves around the sun in an elliptical orbit. When it is closest to the sun,its distance from the sun is $d_1$ and its velocity is $v_1$. When it is farthest from the sun,its distance from the sun is $d_2$ and its velocity is $v_2$. Find the value of $v_2$.

  • A
    $\frac{d_1^2 v_1}{d_2^2}$
  • B
    $\frac{d_2 v_1}{d_1}$
  • C
    $\frac{d_1 v_1}{d_2}$
  • D
    $\frac{d_2^2 v_1}{d_1^2}$
