Answer:
103239.89 days
Explanation:
Kepler's third law states that the square of the orbital period of a planet is directly proportional to the cube of the semi-major axis of its orbit.
a³ / T² = 7.496 × 10⁻⁶ (a.u.³/days²)
where,
a is the distance of the semi-major axis in a.u
T is the orbit time in days
Converting the mean distance of the new planet to astronomical unit (a.u.)
1 a.u = 9.296 × 10⁷ miles
Substituting the values into Kepler's third law equation;
(days)²
T = 103239.89 days
An estimate time T for the new planet to travel around the sun in an orbit is 103239.89 days
