If the distacne between the earth and the sun gets doubled then what would be the duration of the year

A

`730 sqrt2` days

B

`91sqrt2` days

C

365 days

D

730 days

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
a

`(T_(2))/(T_(1))=n^(3//2)=(2)^(3//2)`
`T_(2)=2sqrt2T_(1)`
`T_(2)=365xx2sqrt2=730sqrt2" days."`
