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. \(t_1=t_2\)
