The maximum and minimum distances of a comet from the sun are 8×1012 m and 1.6×1012m. If its velocity when nearest to the sun is 60 m/s, what will be its velocity in m/s when it is farthest?

a
12
b
60
c
112
d
6

detailed solution

Correct option is A

By conservation of angular momentum mvr = constant vmin×rmax=vmax×rmin∴ vmin=60×1.6×10128×1012=605=12m/s
