Answer:
The correct choice is
A) A planet moves faster when it is closer to the Sun.
Explanation:
According to Kepler's second law, radius vector from the sun covers equal area in equal amount of time. so when the planet is farther from sun, it travels at slow speed to cover the same amount of area as covered by it when it is closer to the sun travelling faster.
Kepler’s second law of planetary motion implies Option A) A planet moves faster when it is closer to the Sun.
According to Kepler's Second Law, the imaginary line joining a planet and the Sun sweeps equal areas of space during equal time intervals as the planet orbits. Basically, that planets do not move with constant speed along their orbits. This law explains the speed of a planet traveling in an elliptical orbit around the Sun. Kepler’s second law of planetary motion implies a planet moves faster when it is closer to the Sun.
