Figure shows the variation of energy with the orbit radius r of a satellite in a circular motion. Mark the correct statement.

A

C is total energy .B kinetic energy and A is potenial energy

B

A is kinetic energy, B total energy and C potential energy

C

A and B are the kinetic and potential energies and C the total energy of the satellite.

D

C and A are kinetic and potential energy repectiveluy and B the total energy of the satellite.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
Kinetic energy is +ve (A)
|total energy| `lt` |P.E.|
`therefore C to` total energy , B the P.E.
