A satellite of mass m orbits the earth in an elliptical orbit having aphelion distance r_(a) and perihelion distance r_(p) . The period of the orbit is T. The semi-major and semi-minor axes of the ellipse are (r_(a) + r_(p))/(2) and sqrt(r_(p)r_(a)) respectively. The angular momentum of the satellite is: (A) (2m pi (r_(B)+r_(p)) sqrt(r_(a) r_(p)))/T (B) (m pi (r_(a)+r_(p)) sqrt(r_(a) r_(p)))/(2T) (C) (m pi (r_(a)+r_(p)) sqrt(r_(a)r_(p)))/(4T) (D) (mpi (r_(a)+r_(p)) sqrt(r_(a)r_(p)))/T
