According to Kepler's second law, the speed of the planet is -------- -, when it is closest to the sun and is -------- when it is farthest from the sun.

Assertion: Kepler's second law can be understood by conservation of angular momentum principle. Reason: Kepler's second law is related with areal velocity which can further be proved to be used on coservation of angular momentum as (dA//dt)=(r^(2)omega)//2 .
