Kepler's third law states that square of period revolution `(T)` of a planet around the sun is proportional to third power of average distance `i` between sun and planet i.e. `T^(2)=Kr^(3)`
here `K` is constant
if the mass of sun and planet are `M` and `m` respectively then as per Newton's law of gravitational the force of alteaction between them is `F=(GMm)/(r^(2))`, here `G` is gravitational constant. The relation between `G` and `K` is described as

A

`GK = 4pi^(2)`

B

`GMK = 4pi^(2)`

C

`K = G`

D

`K = (1)/(G)`
