Answer Key / Explanation : (c) -
(c)
Let 
be mass of planet and 
that of sun, 
the radius between the two. Let the planet be moving with velocity 
then
Gravitational force = centripetal force

Hence, larger the distance, smaller the orbital velocity. At point 
distance from sun is maximum, hence orbital velocity is lowest. At point 
distance from sun is minimum, hence orbital velocity is maximum.
