Kepler's third law hypothesizes that for all the small bodies in orbit around the
same central body, the ratio of (orbital period squared) / (orbital radius cubed)
is the same number.
<u>Moon #1:</u> (1.262 days)² / (2.346 x 10^4 km)³
<u>Moon #2:</u> (orbital period)² / (9.378 x 10^3 km)³
If Kepler knew what he was talking about ... and Newton showed that he did ...
then these two fractions are equal, and may be written as a proportion.
Cross multiply the proportion:
(orbital period)² x (2.346 x 10^4)³ = (1.262 days)² x (9.378 x 10^3)³
Divide each side by (2.346 x 10^4)³:
(Orbital period)² = (1.262 days)² x (9.378 x 10^3 km)³ / (2.346 x 10^4 km)³
= 0.1017 day²
Orbital period = <u>0.319 Earth day</u> = about 7.6 hours.

Explanation:
Suspension bridges, like the Golden Gate Bridge or the Brooklyn Bridge, use tension force as the primary source of force that cables use to hold their spans up. The supporting cables receive the tension forces of the bridge, and this same force passes to the anchorages and into the ground
It increases. As it moves it <span>increases while the movement is in process.
