Using arbitrary distance units, if Planet 1 has a mean distance from the sun of 3 and Planet 2 has a mean distance from the Sun of 8, then the Period of Planet 1 is what factor of that of Planet 2's period? This could be larger than 1 (so it's slower) or smaller than one (so it's faster).

1. The farthest planet in the solar system has an average distance from the Sun of 5.9 x 109 km and a mass of 1.99 x 1030 kg. The period of this planet around the Sun is: 25 and 78 and 247 and 782 and 2. The gravitational attraction of a 100 kg satellite in a circular orbit around the Earth with a period of 6 hours is: 89 N 138 N 224 N 876 N
The orbit of a planet around a sun is an elipse with the sun at one focus. The sphetion of a planet is its greatest distance from the sun, its perheton is its shortest distance, and its mean distance is the length of the serimajor axis of the eliptical orbit. If a planet has a perihelion of 406.5 milion miles and a mean distance of 408 milion mies, write an equation for the orbit of the planet around the sun...
