What is the direction of areal velocity of the earth around the sun?
The areal velocity of the earth moving around the sun is dtdA=2mL Where L is the angular momentum and m is the mass of the earth but L=rˉ×pˉ=rˉ×mvˉ Hence , dtdA=2m1(rˉ×mvˉ)=21rˉ×vˉ here , the direction of the areal velocity is perpendicular to plane of rˉ and vˉ in accordance to the right hand grip rule of maxwell.
