1. n12d12=n2d22                                 

2. n22d23=n12d13

3. n1d12=n2d22                                   

4. n12d1=n22d2

Suppose the law of gravitational attraction suddenly changes and becomes an inverse cube law i.e., F1/r3 but the force still remains a central force, then:

1. Kepler's law of areas still holds
2. Kepler's law of period still holds
3. Kepler's law of areas and period still hold
4. Neither the law of areas nor the law of period still hold
