The figure shows the variation of energy with the orbit radius of a body in circular planetary motion. Find the correct statement about the curvₑ A, B and C

Options

• Option A

  A shows the kinetic energy, B the total energy and C the potential energy of the system.

• Option B

  C shows the total energy, B the kinetic energy and A the potential energy of the system.

• Option C

  C and A are kinetic and potential energies respectively and B is the total energy of the system.

• Option D

  A and B are kinetic and potential energies and C is the total energy of the system.
