$A$ huge circular arc of length $4.4 \; ly$ subtends an angle of $4''$ (arcseconds) at the centre of the circle. How long would it take for a body to complete $4$ revolutions if its speed is $8 \; AU/s$?
Given: $1 \; ly = 9.46 \times 10^{15} \; m$,$1 \; AU = 1.5 \times 10^{11} \; m$.

  • A
    $4.1 \times 10^{8} \; s$
  • B
    $4.5 \times 10^{10} \; s$
  • C
    $3.5 \times 10^{6} \; s$
  • D
    $7.2 \times 10^{8} \; s$
