What is Kepler’s third law of motion
Answers
GPT 3.5
Kepler's third law of motion, also known as the law of harmony, states that the square of the orbital period (T) of a planet is directly proportional to the cube of its average distance (r) from the sun. Mathematically, it can be expressed as follows:
T^2 = k * r^3
Where T is the orbital period of the planet, r is the average distance from the sun, and k is a constant of proportionality. This law applies to any planet or satellite orbiting around a central body. It helps to describe the relationship between the time it takes for a planet to complete one orbit and its distance from the sun.
