GivenAngular momentum per mass LM=4.4×1015 m2/sBy Kepler’s second law we use Areal velocity = Area SweptTime for one Revolution of Earth about the sun Also we use Areal velocity = L2M⇒ Area Swept = L2M (Time for one Revolution of Earth about the sun) ⇒ Area Swept = 124.4×1015365×24×60×60⇒ Area Swept = 0.69×1023 m2
