1. Imagine that an object is moving
around the Sun. What will be the
orbital period of the object in Earth
years if its orbit has a semi-major axis
1.587 AU?
2. If we find a galaxy that is moving
away at 72,000 km/s, what does
Hubble's law tells us about the
distance to the galaxy?
Enter your answer in millions of light
years, rounded to an integer number.
(Hubble's constant = 22 km/s per
million light-years)
