The distance of planet Jupiter from the ...

The distance of planet Jupiter from the sun is 5.2 times that of the earth. Find the period of resolution of Jupiter around the sun.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Here ` r_1 = 5.2 r_e : T_3 = ? : T_e = 1 ` year
` therefore (T_3^2)/(T_c^2) = (r_3^3)/(r_e^3)`
` T_3 = T_e (r_3/r_e)^(3/2) = 1 xx ( (5.2 r_e)/(r_e) )^(3/2) ` = 11.86 years
