If an asteroid is 4 AU from the sun and its period of evolution around the sun is 8 years does it obey Kepler's law?
Yes.
A version of Kepler's 3rd Law is: The square of the period of revolution of
a planet (or asteroid) around the Sun (in Earth years) is equal to the cube of its average distance (in AU from) the Sun.
In this case that means 8 squared (64) should equal 4 cubed (64).
It does.
So, the asteroid is keeping to the Law. Thank goodness for that.

What is the orbital period of asteroid 12867 Joëloïc?
The orbital period of asteroid 12867 Joëloïc is approximately 3.92 years or 1430 days. It completes one orbit around the sun in this time.
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.
Did evolution occur in the permian period?
Yes. Evolution ocurred in all geologic periods.
What year did the dinosaur's get killed by the asteroid that hit the earth?
The dinosaurs were killed by an asteroid impact around 66 million years ago at the end of the Cretaceous period. This event triggered mass extinctions and led to the decline of dinosaurs and the rise of mammals as the dominant terrestrial animals.
How long is a year on vesta the asteroid?
The asteroid belt is a region about a hundred million miles across, so there's no such thing as "a year on the asteroid belt". Any given asteroid in the core region of the belt could have an orbital period from a little under 3 up to nearly 6 years. 1 Ceres, for example, has an orbital period of a bit under 1682 days (4.6 years).
What is the orbital period of asteroid 12867 Joëloïc?
The orbital period of asteroid 12867 Joëloïc is approximately 3.92 years or 1430 days. It completes one orbit around the sun in this time.
The orbital period of Jupiter is very close to 12 years What is the orbital period of an asteroid at the 52 resonance with Jupiter?
An asteroid at the 5:2 resonance with Jupiter would have an orbital period that is 5/2 times that of Jupiter, which would be around 4.8 years. This means that for every 5 orbits Jupiter completes around the Sun, the asteroid would complete around 2 orbits.
What is the asteroid belt's period of rotation?
Each individual member of the asteroid 'belt' ... and there may be millions of them ... revolves around the sun in its own orbit and with its own orbital period. Most of them stay between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter, so their orbital periods are between 2 years and 12 years.
Kirkwood gaps in the asteroid belt occur at distances where?
the period of an orbiting asteroid would be a simple fraction (like 1/3 or 1/4) of Jupiter's orbital period.
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.
Was the cretaceous period the last of period?
Yes, right up to the asteroid that may have killed the dino's
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.
Did evolution occur in the permian period?
Yes. Evolution ocurred in all geologic periods.
How much oxygen was in the air in the quaternary period?
During the Quaternary Period, oxygen levels in the atmosphere were similar to present-day levels, around 20.9%. This period saw the evolution and expansion of modern human species.
What is the rotation of the asteroid belt?
Each individual member of the asteroid 'belt' ... and there may be millions of them ... revolves around the sun in its own orbit and with its own orbital period. Most of them stay between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter, so their orbital periods are between 2 years and 12 years.
A change in form or nature?
metamorphisis or evolution. evolution is the period of time in which a living organism slowly changes.
What year did the dinosaur's get killed by the asteroid that hit the earth?
The dinosaurs were killed by an asteroid impact around 66 million years ago at the end of the Cretaceous period. This event triggered mass extinctions and led to the decline of dinosaurs and the rise of mammals as the dominant terrestrial animals.
