The earth revolves around the sun in an elliptical orbit. It has a speed `v_(1)` when it is at the minimum distance `d_(1)` from the sun. When it is at the maximum distance `d_(2)` from the sun, its speed is
A. `(v_(1)d_(2))/(d_(1))`
B. `(v_(1)d_(1))/(d_(2))`
C. `v_(1)^(2)(d_(2))/(d_(1))`
D. `v_(1)((d_(1))/(d_(2)))^(2)`

Correct Answer - B
By the principle of conservation of momentum,
`I_(1)omega_(1)=I_(2)omega_(2)`
`therefore md_(1)^(2)(V_(1))/(d_(1))=md_(2)^(2)(V_(2))/(d_(2))" " therefore V_(1)d_(1)=V_(2)d_(2)`
