Question

In the figure Area 1 is equal to Area 2 . Time taken by the planet in moving from $P_{1}$ to $P_{2}$ is t1 and from $P_{3}$ to $P_{4}$ is $t_{2}$ . Relation between $t_{1}$ and $t_{2}$ is

t_{1} = t_{2}

Solution

The correct option is A $t_{1} = t_{2}$
According to Kepler's second law, planets in orbits sweep equal areas in equal intervals of time therefore $t_{1} = t_{2}$ .
