The mean solar distance of Earth is 1.50 x m with a period of 1 year. What is the distance of mars from the sun if it has a period of 1.88 years? - b. Titan, the largest moon of Saturn, has a mean orbital radius of 1.22x109 m. The orbital period of Titan is 15.95 days. Hyperion, another moon of Saturn, orbits at a mean radius of 1.48x109 m. Use Kepler's third law of planetary motion to predict the orbital period of Hyperion in days.

Assume the earth's mass is 23.335 x 1025 kg, and radius is 76.394 x 103 miles, what would be the gravitational acceleration on such an planet in unit of m/s2? Use G=6.67x 10 -11 Nm2/kg2.
6. A synchronous orbit is an orbit about a planet's equator that always remains above the same spot of the planet because the synchronous orbit matches the planet's rotational period. The pilot of the Mars spacecraft (which was named Cheetah 1 and had a 9556 kg mass) asked Tarzan to calculate the altitude of a synchronous orbit so they could remain over a particular geological feature on the Martian equator. Calculate the altitude above the Martian equator using the data above and Johannes Kepler's genius.

Use Kepler's Law, which states that the square of the time, T, required for a planet to orbit the Sun varies directly with the cube of the mean distance, a, that the planet is from the Sun.Using Earth's time of 1 year and a mean distance of 93 million miles, the equation relating T (in years) and a (in million miles) is 804375T2=a3.Use that relation equation to determine the time required for a planet with mean distance of 206 million miles to orbit the Sun. Round to 2 decimal places. years
