ACTIVITY 3: THE DATA SAYS! Now that you know that the data left by Brahe to Kepler proved to be accurate that is why he was able to discover the three laws of planetary motion. So to verify it yourself, why don't you complete the table below with your own result of the calculations applying the law of periods. For easy calculation, please use a scientific calculator. Earth's data is already supplied to you. Show at least one of the solutions here. Just follow the example given for Earth Note: For the computations, use a scientific calculator.
