Please determine the orbital semi major axis and period of the asteroid?
Orbital semi-major axis can be defined as the axis of the eclipse from the center distance to the larger end of the ellipse. An asteroid is like a minor planet of the Solar System. These are the astronomical object orbiting the Sun.

Group of answer choices Trojan asteroids are located in either of two gravitationally stable regions within the orbit of Jupiter, about 120° apart. Trojan asteroids are those asteroids in the asteroid belt which are hidden from view by Mars. Trojan asteroids are kept in orbit primarily by the gravitational effects of Jupiter and the Sun. Trojan asteroids pose much less danger to us than Earth-crossing asteroids.
