is followed by a statement of reason (R). Mark the correct choice as:
Assertion: The speed of satellite always remains constant in an orbit.
Reason: The speed of a satellite is dependent of its path.
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:

If the orbital path of a satellite is circular, then its speed is constant and if the orbital path of a
satellite is elliptical, then its speed in its orbit is not constant. In that case its areal velocity is constant.
