To verify Kepler's third law graphically four students plotted graphs. Student A plotted a graph of T (period of revolution of planets) versus r (average distance of planets from the sun) and found the plot is straight line with slope 1.85. Student B plotted a graph of T2 v/s r3 and found the plot is straight line with slope 1.39 and negative Y-intercept. Student C plotted graph of log T v/s log r and found the plot is straight line with slope 1.5. Student D plotted graph of log T v/s log r and found the plot is straight line with slope 0.67 and with negative X-intercept. The correct graph is of student

  3. only the third law will become invalid.
  4. for n negative, an object lighter than water will sink in water.

Out of aphelion and perihelion, where is the speed of the earth more and why?


Earth’s orbit is an ellipse with eccentricity 0.0167. Thus, earth’s distance from the sun and speed as it moves around the sun varies from day to day. This means that the length of the solar day is not constant through the year. Assume that earth’s spin axis is normal to its orbital plane and find out the length of the shortest and the longest day. A day should be taken from noon to noon. Does this explain variation of length of the day during the year?


A satellite is in an elliptic orbit around the earth with aphelion of 6R and perihelion of 2 R where R= 6400 km is the radius of the earth. Find eccentricity of the orbit. Find the velocity of the satellite at apogee and perigee. What should be done if this satellite has to be transferred to a circular orbit of radius 6R ?
