GENERAL KNOWLEDGE

Detailed explanation-1: -Kepler’s First Law: each planet’s orbit about the Sun is an ellipse. The Sun’s center is always located at one focus of the orbital ellipse. The Sun is at one focus. The planet follows the ellipse in its orbit, meaning that the planet to Sun distance is constantly changing as the planet goes around its orbit.

Detailed explanation-2: -Kepler’s First Law, also known as The Law of Ellipses-The orbits of the planets are ellipses, with the sun at one focus. Kepler’s Second Law, or The Law of Equal Areas in Equal Time-The line between a planet and the sun sweeps out equal areas in the plane of the planet’s orbit over equal times.

Detailed explanation-3: -Kepler’s first law means that planets move around the Sun in elliptical orbits. An ellipse is a shape that resembles a flattened circle. How much the circle is flattened is expressed by its eccentricity. The eccentricity is a number between 0 and 1.

Detailed explanation-4: -Kepler’s Law MCQs for NEET Kepler’s First Law: All the planets move around the sun in elliptical orbits with the sun at the focus. Kepler’s Second Law: The line joining the planet to the sun sweeps out equal areas in an equal interval of time.
