The figure shows the elliptical path $abcd$ of a planet around the sun $S$ such that the area of triangle $csa$ is $\frac{1}{4}$ of the area of the ellipse. With $db$ as the major axis and $ca$ as a chord perpendicular to the major axis,if $t_1$ is the time taken for the planet to travel along the path $abc$ and $t_2$ is the time taken for the path $cda$,then:

The time period of a satellite revolving around earth in a given orbit is $7 \, hours$. If the radius of orbit is increased to three times its previous value,then the approximate new time period of the satellite will be ...... $hours$.

$A$ planet revolves around the Sun in an elliptical orbit,where the semi-major axis $a$ is double the semi-minor axis $b$ $(a = 2b)$. The Sun is at the focus. Given that the planet takes $24$ hours to travel through the path $bed$ as shown in the figure,find the time taken by the planet to travel along the path $dab$.
