Question : 1

Kepler’s second law (law of area) is nothing but a statement of

a) conservation of angular momentum

b) conservation of linear momentum

c) work energy theorem

d) conservation of energy

Answer: (a)

From Kepler's $2^{nd}$ law – The straight line joining the sun and the planet sweeps out equal areas in equal time intervals (${dA}/{dt}$ = const; area swept)

Areal velocity of the satellite is given by

${dA}/{dt}=1/2ωr^2 = const. = L/{2m}$

where ω = angular velocity of the satellite

L = mvr = mω$r^2$ = const, showing that Kepler's $2^nd$ law is a consequence of the conservation of angular momentum.
