Assume the earth's orbit around the sun as circular and the distance between their centre as D\mathrm{D}. Mass of the earth is M\mathrm{M} and its radius is R\mathrm{R}. If earth has an angular velocity ω0\omega_0 with respect to its centre and ω\omega with respect to the centre of the sun, the total kinetic energy of earth is
View answer and explanation
Correct option: B
MR2ω025[1+52(DωRω0)2]\frac{\mathrm{MR}^2 \omega_0^2}{5}\left[1+\frac{5}{2}\left(\frac{\mathrm{D} \omega}{\mathrm{R} \omega_0}\right)^2\right]
Option B (MR2ω025[1+52(DωRω0)2]\frac{{\mathrm{{MR}}^2 \omega_0^2}}{{5}}\left[1+\frac{{5}}{{2}}\left(\frac{{\mathrm{{D}} \omega}}{{\mathrm{{R}} \omega_0}}\right)^2\right]) is correct because it is derived from the sum of the rotational kinetic energy about its center and the translational kinetic energy due to its orbit around the sun.
