If the earth is at one-fourth of its present distance from the sun, the duration of the year will be
Half the present year
One-eighth the present year
One-fourth the present year
One-sixth the present year
If the earth is at one-fourth of its present distance from the sun, the duration of the year will be
Since ${T^2} \propto {r^3}$
$\therefore \,\,{\left( {\frac{{T'}}{T}} \right)^2} = {\left( {\frac{1}{4}} \right)^3}\,$
$\Rightarrow \,T' = \frac{1}{8}T$
