A double star system consists of two stars AA and BB which have time period TAT_A and TBT_B. Radius RAR_A and RBR_B and mass MAM_A and MBM_B. Choose the correct option.

Options

  1. AIf TA>TBT_A>T_B, then RA>RBR_A>R_B
  2. BIf TA>TBT_A>T_B, then MA>MBM_A>M_B
  3. C(TATB)2=(RARB)3\left(\frac{T_A}{T_B}\right)^2=\left(\frac{R_A}{R_B}\right)^3
  4. DTA=TBT_A=T_B

Correct answer

D. TA=TBT_A=T_B

Step-by-step solution

In case of binary star system angular velocity and hence the time period of both the stars are equal.
