The orbital period of planet Venus is 0.62 years. What is its distance from the sun?

Chemistry

Vikki [24]4 years ago

Kepler's third law shows the relationship between the orbital period of an object and the distance between the object and the object it orbits.

The simplified version of this law is: P^2 = a^3

Where,

P = period of the orbit in years = 0.62 years

a = average distance from the object to the object it orbits in AU. The astronomical unit AU is a unit of length which is roughly equivalent to the distance from Earth to the Sun.

Therefore calculating for a:

0.62 ^ 2 = a ^ 3

a = 0.62 ^ (2/3)

a = 0.727 AU = 0.72 AU

Therefore we can interpret this as: The distance from Venus to the Sun is about 72% of the distance from Earth to Sun.

What property does fractional distillation rely on?
Tcecarenko [31]
Fractional distillation relies on the property that each substance has a different boiling point and will turn into vapour and rise at different points in time. This is also how they are collected because of the difference in their boiling points. 
it is a process which separates a mixture into the elements that make up the mixture. The mixtures has to be heated to such high temperatures as is the boiling point of the elements in it so that all the elements boil and rise and can be distilled and collected separately.
