Assertion : The time period of revolution of a satellite around a planet is directly proportional to the radius of the orbit of the satellite. Reason : Artificial satellite do not follow Kepler's laws of planatary motion.

Options

  1. AIf both AA and and Reason are true and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion.
  2. BIf both Assertion and Reason are true but Reason is not the correct explanation of Assertion.
  3. CIf Assertion is true but Reason is false.
  4. DIf Assertion is false but Reason is true.

Correct answer

C. If Assertion is true but Reason is false.

Step-by-step solution

Kepler's laws are the general rules for all planetary motions. Hence artificial satellites showed also follow the same laws.
