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.

What is the angular displacement of a minute hand of a clock after 3 minutes?​
Inessa [10]

Answer:

π/10 rads

Explanation:

It takes an hour (60 minutes) for the minute's hand to turn a full circle or achieve an angular rotation of

2πl rad.

Now, number of periods of 3 minutes in an hour is;

Number of periods = 60/3 = 20 periods

Thus, 3 minutes rotation accounts for 1/20 of 2π the rotation of the minute's hand in an hour.

Thus;

Angular displacement = (1/20) * 2π = π/10 rads
