The correct statement that describes Kepler’s third law of orbital motion is:
**The square of the orbital period is proportional to the cube of the semi-major axis.**
This means that if you take the orbital period (T) of a planet and the semi-major axis (a) of its orbit, the relationship can be expressed as \( T^2 \propto a^3 \).
**The square of the orbital period is proportional to the cube of the semi-major axis.**
This means that if you take the orbital period (T) of a planet and the semi-major axis (a) of its orbit, the relationship can be expressed as \( T^2 \propto a^3 \).
