Answer: 17.83 AU
Explanation:
According to Kepler’s Third Law of Planetary motion <em>“The square of the orbital period of a planet is proportional to the cube of the semi-major axis (size) of its orbit”. </em>
(1)
Talking in general, this law states a relation between the <u>orbital period</u> of a body (moon, planet, satellite, comet) orbiting a greater body in space with the <u>size</u>
of its orbit.
However, if is measured in <u>years</u>, and
is measured in <u>astronomical units</u> (equivalent to the distance between the Sun and the Earth:
), equation (1) becomes:
(2)
This means that now both sides of the equation are equal.
Knowing and isolating
from (2):
(3)
(4)
Finally:
(5)
Answer:
a) b = -5
b) slope = 3/2
Explanation:
a) The equation of a line is given as y = mx + b, where m is the slope of the line and b is the intercept on the y axis.
Given that y = 3x + b and it passes through the point (2, 1). Hence when x = 2, y = 1. Therefore, substituting for x and y:
1 = 3(2) + b
1 = 6 + b
b = 1 - 6
b = -5
b) The equation of a line passing through two points () and
is given by:
The equation of the line passing through the two points (0,3) and (4,9) is:
Comparing y = (3/2)x + 3 with y = mx + b, the slope (m) is 3/2
