Kepler’s 2nd law: Law of Areas

Statement:-The line that joins a planet to the sun sweeps out equal areas in equal intervals of time.

  • Area covered by the planet while revolving around the sun will be equal in equal intervals of time. This means the rate of change of area with time is constant.
  • Suppose position and momentum of planet is denoted by ‘r’ and ‘p’ and the time taken will be Δt.
  • ΔA=1/2xrxvΔt (where vΔt is distance travelled by a planet in Δt time.)
  • ΔA / Δt =1/2(rxv)
  • where
  • (Linear momentum) p=mv or we can write as
  • =p/m
  • =1/2m(rxp)
  • =1/2 L/2m where L= angular momentum(It is constant for any central force)

ΔA / Δt = constant (This means equal areas are covered in equal intervals of time).
