$A$ planet moves around the sun. At a given point $P$,it is closest to the sun at a distance $d_1$ and has a speed $v_1$. At another point $Q$,when it is farthest from the sun at a distance $d_2$,its speed will be:

  • A
    $\frac{d_1^2 v_1}{d_2^2}$
  • B
    $\frac{d_2 v_1}{d_1}$
  • C
    $\frac{d_1 v_1}{d_2}$
  • D
    $\frac{d_2^2 v_1}{d_1^2}$

If the orbital period of a satellite becomes $8$ times, then by how many times does its orbital radius increase (in $times$)?

India's Mangalyaan was sent to Mars by launching it into a transfer orbit $EOM$ around the Sun. It leaves the Earth at $E$ and meets Mars at $M$. If the semi-major axis of Earth's orbit is $a_e = 1.5 \times 10^{11} \, m$ and that of Mars' orbit is $a_m = 2.28 \times 10^{11} \, m$, using Kepler's laws, estimate the time taken for Mangalyaan to reach Mars from Earth in days.
