Kepler's third law of orbital motion states that the square of the period of orbit (T) of a planet is directly proportional to the cube of the semi-major axis (a) of its orbit. This can be expressed mathematically as:
**T² ∝ a³**
So, the correct response is:
**T2 ∝ a3**
**T² ∝ a³**
So, the correct response is:
**T2 ∝ a3**
