The orbital speed of Jupiter is

A

Greater than the orbital speed of earth

B

Less than the orbital speed of earth

C

Equal to the orbital speed of earth

D

Zero

Solution

(b) Orbital radius of Jupiter > Orbital radius of Earth

$\frac{{{v_J}}}{{{v_e}}} = \frac{{{r_e}}}{{{r_J}}}$            As ${r_J} > {r_e}$    therefore ${v_J} < {v_e}$
