PhysicsEasysingle choice

A comet revolves around the sun in an elliptical orbit. When it is closest to the sun at distance $d$ , then its corresponding kinetic energy is $k_{0} .$ If it is farthest from the sun at distance $3 d$ then the corresponding kinetic energy will be

Options:

Answer:

Solution:

$v_{1} r_{1} = v_{2} r_{2} =$ constant

$∴ v_{0} d = 3 {dv}_{1}$

$\Rightarrow v_{1} = \frac{v_{0}}{3}$

$∴ KE = \frac{1}{2} \frac{{mv}_{0}^{2}}{9}$

$\Rightarrow KE = \frac{k_{0}}{9}$
