Assume that we have a distant Star-Planet system with no other planets and the Star is the same as the Sun and the planet is the same as the Earth. This is called an "Earth analog system or "Earth twin". The masses and the orbits are the same except you can assume a perfectly circular orbit. A) Calculate the equation for the orbital velocity of a planet on a circular orbit. To do this use the equation for average speed: distance=rate x time. In a circular orbit, the speed is always the same, so you can use a time that is one full orbital period (1 year). What is the distance that a planet on a circular orbit travels in this time? Calculate the speed of the Earth twin in meters/second. Mass of the sun: 2 x 1030 kg. Mass of the Earth: 5.97 x 1024kg (Note: I think I understand how to use the distance= rate x time, but I'm not sure what to input for rate in this situation. I am also not sure how to calculate the speed of the Earth twin)
