A satellite whose mass is \(m\), is revolving in a circular orbit of radius \(r\), around the earth of mass \(M\). Time of revolution of the satellite is:
1. \(T \propto \frac{r^5}{GM}\)
2. \(T \propto \sqrt{\frac{r^3}{GM}}\)
3. \(T \propto \sqrt{\frac{r}{\frac{GM^2}{3}}}\)
4. \(T \propto \sqrt{\frac{r^3}{\frac{GM^2}{4}}}\)

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

1. \(d_2v_1 \over d_1\) 2. \(d_1v_1 \over d_2\)
3. \(d_1^2v_1 \over d_2\) 4. \(d_2^2v_1 \over d_1\)

Kepler's third law states that the square of the period of revolution (\(T\)) of a planet around the sun, is proportional to the third power of average distance \(r\) between the sun and planet i.e. \(T^2 = Kr^3\), here \(K\) is constant. If the masses of the sun and planet are \(M\) and \(m\) respectively, then as per Newton's law of gravitation, the force of attraction between them is \(F = \frac{GMm}{r^2},\) here \(G\) is the gravitational constant. The relation between \(G\) and \(K\) is described as:
1. \(GK = 4\pi^2\)
2. \(GMK = 4\pi^2\)
3. \(K =G\)
4. \(K = \frac{1}{G}\)

The kinetic energies of a planet in an elliptical orbit around the Sun, at positions \(A,B~\text{and}~C\) are \(K_A, K_B~\text{and}~K_C\) respectively. \(AC\) is the major axis and \(SB\) is perpendicular to \(AC\) at the position of the Sun \(S\), as shown in the figure. Then:

1. \(K_A <K_B< K_C\) 2. \(K_A >K_B> K_C\)
3. \(K_B <K_A< K_C\) 4. \(K_B >K_A> K_C\)

The figure shows the elliptical orbit of a planet \(m\) about the sun \(\mathrm{S}.\) The shaded area \(\mathrm{SCD}\) is twice the shaded area \(\mathrm{SAB}.\) If \(t_1\) is the time for the planet to move from \(\mathrm{C}\) to \(\mathrm{D}\) and \(t_2\) is the time to move from \(\mathrm{A}\) to \(\mathrm{B},\) then:
           

1. \(t_1>t_2\) 2. \(t_1=4t_2\)
3. \(t_1=2t_2\) 4. \(t_1=t_2\)
