keplers third law states that the square of the period of any planets orbit is proportional to the cube of the semimajor axis of the orbit. for the following, show all your work and dont skip steps
derive the exact expression relating the period (T) and the radius (r) for a planet in circular orbit by applying newtons second law for circular motion.
the orbital period of mars in its revolution around the sun is 1.88 years what average distance from the sun does the keplers thirdlaw predict for mars?
