    D)  25 year

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

                    According to Keplers law \[{{T}^{2}}\propto {{R}^{3}}\] \[{{\left( \frac{{{T}_{2}}}{{{T}_{1}}} \right)}^{2}}={{\left( \frac{{{r}_{2}}}{{{r}_{1}}} \right)}^{3}}={{\left( \frac{5.2{{r}_{1}}}{{{r}_{1}}} \right)}^{3}}={{(5.2)}^{3}}\] \[{{T}_{2}}={{T}_{1}}{{(5.2)}^{3/2}}\] \[={{T}_{1}}\times 11.85=1\times 11.85\] \[=11.85\] years \[=12\] years.
