A planet is revolving around the Sun in an elliptical orbit. Its closest distance from the sun is `r_(min)`. The farthest distance from the sun is `r_(max)` if the orbital angular velocity of the planet when it is nearest to the Sun `omega` then the orbital angular velocity at the point when it i at the farthest distanec from the sun is

A

`(sqrt((r_(min))/(r_(max))))omega`

B

`(sqrt((r_(max))/(r_(min))))omega`

C

`((r_(max))/(r_(min)))^(2)omega`

D
