Well honey, Kepler's third law tells us that the square of a planet's orbital period is proportional to the cube of its average distance from the sun. In simpler terms, the farther an asteroid is from the sun, the longer it takes to complete its trip around it. Easy peasy lemon squeezy.

What do the length of the planets year and its distance from the sun have in common?

There is a relationship between the planets distance from the sun and the time taken for one orbit (planets year), described in Keplers third law. The square root of the time taken to orbit the sun is proportional to the cube of the average distance between the sun.


What two things is gravitational field strength dependent on?

Distance from the body and the mass of the body. See Keplers laws of planetary motion for more info.


What does Keplers laws apply to?

Kepler's laws apply to the motion of planets around the Sun. Specifically, they describe the elliptical orbits of planets, the equal area law (planets sweep out equal areas in equal times), and the relationship between a planet's orbital period and its distance from the Sun.

Which orbit in Keplers law would have the longest period?

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.

What must a planets mean orbital distance to the Sun be equal to?

this corresponds to Keplers 3rd law of planetary motion P ^2 = R^3 p Squared is equal to the period of revolution, in years r is equal to the distance from the sun in astronomical units. this is a simple version of the principle, Newton modified it.


What is newtons version of Keplers 3rd law?

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.
