If the distance between the Earth and Sun were to be doubled from its present value, the number of days in a year would be

A

64.5

B

1032

C

182.5

D

730

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
`T_(2)^(2)=((a_(2))/(a_(1)))^(3)xxT_(1)^(2)`
`a_(2)= 2a_(1)`
`T_(2)^(2) = (2)^(3) xx (365)^(2)`
`T_(1)=1` year = 365
`therefore T_(2)= 1032` days in a year
