359955 In planetary motion the areal velocity of position vector of a planet depends on angular velocity\((\omega)\) and the distance of the planet from sun (\(r\)). The correct relation for areal velocity is

1 \(\dfrac{d A}{d t} \propto \omega r\)
2 \(\dfrac{d A}{d t}=\sqrt{\omega r}\)
3 \(\dfrac{d A}{d t} \propto \omega^{2} r\)
4 \(\dfrac{d A}{d t} \propto \omega r^{2}\)
