In the Following figure shows the elliptical path of a planet about the sun. The two shaded parts have equal area. If t1 and t2 be the time taken by the planet to go from a to b and from c to d respectively,
विकल्प
t1 < t2
t1 = t2
t1 > t2
insufficient information to deduce the relation between t1 and t2
उत्तर
t1 = t2
Kepler's second law states that the line joining a planet to the Sun sweeps out equal areas in equal intervals of time, i.e., areal velocity of a planet about the Sun is constant.
The given areas swept by the planet are equal, so t1 = t2

Draw areal velocity versus time graph for mars.
What is the direction of areal velocity of the earth around the sun?
Earth’s orbit is an ellipse with eccentricity 0.0167. Thus, earth’s distance from the sun and speed as it moves around the sun varies from day to day. This means that the length of the solar day is not constant through the year. Assume that earth’s spin axis is normal to its orbital plane and find out the length of the shortest and the longest day. A day should be taken from noon to noon. Does this explain variation of length of the day during the year?
A planet revolving in an elliptical orbit has:
- a constant velocity of revolution.
- has the least velocity when it is nearest to the sun.
- its areal velocity is directly proportional to its velocity.
- areal velocity is inversely proportional to its velocity.
- to follow a trajectory such that the areal velocity is constant.
