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
