NEET Physics Kepler's Laws Match the Following Question
Match Column-I with Column-II.
| Column-I | Column-II |
|---|---|
| (a) First Law | (i) Planets sweep out equal areas in equal times |
| (b) Second Law | (ii) The square of the period is proportional to the cube of the semi-major axis |
| (c) Third Law | (iii) Orbits of planets are ellipses with the Sun at one focus |
| (d) Newton's Law | (iv) Describes the gravitational force between two masses |
a-iii, b-i, c-ii, d-iv
a-i, b-ii, c-iii, d-iv
a-ii, b-iii, c-i, d-iv
a-iii, b-ii, c-i, d-iv
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
Kepler's First Law states that planets move in elliptical orbits with the Sun at one focus, while the Second Law describes how planets sweep out equal areas in equal times. The Third Law relates the period of orbit to the semi-major axis. Newton's Law of gravitation describes the force between two masses.
