Average distance of the earth from the s...

Average distance of the earth from the sun is `L_(1)`. If one year of the earth=D days, one year of another planet whose average distance from the sun is `L_(2)` will be

A

`D((L_(2))/(L_(1)))^(1//2)`days

B

`D((L_(2))/(L_(1)))^(3//2)`days

C

`D((L_(2))/(L_(1)))^(2//3)`days

D

`D((L_(2))/(L_(1)))`days

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

According to Kepler.s third law,
`T^(2) prop r^(3). or " T prop r^(3//2)`
`:. (D.)/(D)=((L_(2))/(L_(1)))^(3//2)" or D.=D((L_(2))/(L_(1))^(3//2))" days"`
