    The distance between the sun and the earth be               r, then the angular momentum of the earth        around the sun is proportional to

    A)                  \[\sqrt{r}\]                                        

    B)  r3/2

    C)                  r                                              

    D)  None of these

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

                    According to Keplers third law                 \[{{T}^{2}}\propto {{r}^{3}}\Rightarrow T\propto {{r}^{3/2}}\]                 We have         \[\omega =\frac{2\pi }{T}\]                 \[\therefore \]\[\omega \propto {{r}^{-3/2}}\]                 Now,    \[L=m{{r}^{2}}\omega \Rightarrow L\propto {{r}^{2}}\times {{r}^{-3/2}}\]                 \[\therefore \]\[L\alpha {{r}^{1/2}}\]
