If the sun and the planets carried huge amounts of opposite charges

A

all three of Kepler's laws would still be valid.

B

only the third law will be valid.

C

the second law will not change.

D

the first law will still be valid.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A, C, D
Due to huge amounts of opposite change on sun and earth there will be a large force of electrosatic attraction as well as gravitational attraction. Both the force obey inverse square law and are central forces. Due to it, the distance between sun and earth will decreases. In this situation, all the three kepler's laws will be valid.
