Kepler's laws are:
The orbit of every planet is an ellipse with the Sun at one of the two foci.
A line joining a planet and the Sun sweeps out equal areas during equal intervals of time.
The square of the orbital period of a planet is directly proportional to the cube of the semi-major axis of its orbit.
The third law relates the size of the orbit to the time taken to go round once, so Neptune with an orbit 30 times larger than the Earth takes 164 years to go round because 164 equals 30 to the power 1.5
Newton showed that these laws follow from his theory of gravity.
Kepler's Third Law, also known as the Harmonic Law, states that the square of the orbital period of a planet is directly proportional to the cube of the semi-major axis of its orbit.
Newton derived Keplars findings from Newton's Theory of Gravity. Thus, newton 'explained' the basis for Keplars findings and extended them.
It is Kepler's first law which says the planet moves in an ellipse with the Sun occupying one focus and the other focus is vacant.
Kepler's second law, also known as the law of equal areas, states that a planet sweeps out equal areas in equal times as it moves around the Sun. This means that a planet travels faster when it is closer to the Sun in its orbit and slower when it is farther away.
Yes for every action there will be an EQUAL and opposite reaction. This is Newton's third law
Kepler's Third Law, also known as the Harmonic Law, states that the square of the orbital period of a planet is directly proportional to the cube of the semi-major axis of its orbit.
An orbit with a large semimajor axis will have the longest period according to Kepler's third law. This means that an orbit with the greatest average distance from the central body will have the longest period.
Newton's version of Kepler's Third Law states that the square of the period of revolution of a planet around the Sun is directly proportional to the cube of its average distance from the Sun. It can be expressed mathematically as T^2 ∝ r^3, where T is the period and r is the average distance.

Kepler's first law says Neptune has an elliptical orbit with the Sun at one focus. The same goes for the other planets.
Yes, Kepler's third law applies to all the planets in our solar system. It states that the square of a planet's orbital period is proportional to the cube of its semi-major axis. This relationship holds true for all the planets, with each planet's orbital period and distance from the Sun following this law.
Kepler's law that describes how fast planets travel at different points in their orbits is called the Law of Equal Areas. This law states that a planet will travel faster when it is closer to the Sun and slower when it is farther away, so that the area it sweeps out in a given time is the same regardless of its distance from the Sun.
A consequence of Kepler's Second Law (law of equal areas) is that a planet moves faster in its orbit when it is closer to the Sun and slower when it is farther away. This results in an uneven distribution of orbital velocities throughout the planet's orbit.
Kepler's Laws of Planetary Motion:1] Each planet moves in an elliptical orbit with the sun at one focus2] The line form the sun to any planet sweeps out equal areas of space in equal time intervals3] The squares of the times of revolution (days, months or years) of the planets are proportional to the cubes of their average distances from the sun.
The third law involves direction!
It is Kepler's first law which says the planet moves in an ellipse with the Sun occupying one focus and the other focus is vacant.
This is Newton's third law of motion. It states that for every action force there is an equal and opposite reaction force.
