Question

What is the relationship between distance from the Sun and period of

Answer 1

Answer:

T^2 α r^3

Explanation:

The relationship between the period of revolution of planets and their mean distances from the sun is given by Kepler's third law.

Kepler's laws of planetary motion describe the orbits of objects around the sun.

This third law states that; "the square of the period of revolution of planets are proportional to the cubes of their mean distances from the sun. Hence; T^2 α r^3.

Where;

T = period of revolution of the planets

r = mean distance of the planet from the sun
