B

$6$

C

Solution

$T ^2 \propto R ^3 \Rightarrow\left(\frac{ T _1}{ T _2}\right)^2=\left(\frac{ R _1}{ R _2}\right)^3$

$\Rightarrow\left(\frac{1}{2.83}\right)^2=\left(\frac{1.5 \times 10^6}{ R _2}\right)^3$

$\Rightarrow R _2=\left[(2.83)^2 \times\left(1.5 \times 10^6\right)^3\right]^{1 / 3}$

$=8^{1 / 3} \times 1.5 \times 10^6=3 \times 10^6\,km$
