Figure shows the variation of energy with the orbit radius r of a satellite in a circular motion. Mark the correct

Options

A $C$ is total energy, $B$ kinetic energy and $A$ is potential energy.
B $A$ is kinetic energy, $B$ total energy and $C$ potential energy.
C $A$ and $B$ are the kinetic and potential energies and $C$ the total energy of the satellite.
D $C$ and $A$ are kinetic and potential energy respectively and $B$ the total energy of the satellite.

Correct answer

C. $A$ and $B$ are the kinetic and potential energies and $C$ the total energy of the satellite.
