Earth's orbit is an ellipse with eccentricity $e = 0.0167$. Thus,the Earth's distance from the Sun and its speed as it moves around the Sun vary from day to day. This means that the length of the solar day is not constant throughout the year. Assume that the Earth's spin axis is normal to its orbital plane and find the length of the shortest and the longest day. $A$ day should be taken from noon to noon. Does this explain the variation in the length of the day during the year?

The figure shows the motion of a planet around the sun in an elliptical orbit with the sun at the focus. The shaded areas are equal. If $t_1$ and $t_2$ represent the time taken for the planet to move from $A$ to $B$ and $C$ to $D$ respectively,then:

The Earth is revolving around the Sun. If the distance of the Earth from the Sun is reduced to $\frac{1}{4}$ of the present distance,then the length of the present day will be reduced by a factor of:
