Assume that the earth moves around the sun in a circular orbit of radius $R$ and there exists a planet which also moves around the sun in a circular orbit with an angular speed twice as large as that of the earth. The radius of the orbit of the planet is

$A$ planet moves around the sun. At a given point $P$,it is closest to the sun at a distance $d_1$ and has a speed $v_1$. At another point $Q$,when it is farthest from the sun at a distance $d_2$,its speed will be:

$A$ satellite $S_1$ of mass $m$ is moving in an orbit of radius $r$. Another satellite $S_2$ of mass $2m$ is moving in an orbit of radius $2r$. The ratio of the time period of satellite $S_2$ to that of $S_1$ is

In planetary motion,the areal velocity of the position vector of a planet depends on the angular velocity $\omega$ and the distance of the planet from the sun $r$. The correct relation for areal velocity is:
