Use Kepler's Law, which states that the square of the time, T, required for a planet to orbit the Sun varies directly with the cube of the mean distance, a, that the planet is from the Sun.Using Earth's time of 1 year and a mean distance of 93 million miles, the equation relating T (in years) and a (in million miles) is 804375T2=a3.Use that relation equation to determine the time required for a planet with mean distance of 206 million miles to orbit the Sun. Round to 2 decimal places. years

According to the official Bartleby guidelines, each question can have up to two subquestions! Thank you! 1) Use Kepler's Law to find the time (in Earth’s years) for Mars to orbit the Sun if the radius of Mars’ orbit is 1.5 times the radius of Earth's orbit. 1.8 2.8 3.4 4.2 A) The mass of Mars is about 1/10 the mass of Earth. Its diameter is about 1/2 the diameter of Earth. What is the gravitational acceleration at the surface of Mars? 9.8 m/s2 2.0 m/s2 3.9 m/s2 4.9 m/s2 none of these B) A 9.0 x 10 3 kg satellite orbits the Earth at the distance of 2.56 x 10 7 m from Earth’s surface.

Next you will (1) convert your measurement of the semi-major axis from arcseconds to AU, (2) convert your measurement of the period from days to years, and (3) calculate the mass of the planet using Newton's form of Kepler's Third Law. Use Stellarium to find the distance to the planet when Skynet took any of your images, in AU. Answer: 4.322 AU Use this equation to determine a conversion factor from 1 arcsecond to AU at the planet's distance. You will need to convert ? = 1 arcsecond to degrees first. Answer: 2.096e-5 AU (2 x 3.14 x 4.322 x (.000278/360) = 2.096e-5) Next, use this number to convert your measurement of the moon's orbital semi-major axis from arcseconds to AU. A) Calculate a in AU. B) Convert your measurement of the moon's orbital period from days to years. C) By Newton's form of Kepler's third law, calculate the mass of the planet. D) Finally, convert the planet's mass to Earth masses: 1 solar mass = 333,000 Earth masses.
