The mean distance of mass from the sun is 1.524 times that of earth from the sun. Find the number of years required for mass to make one revolution about the sun.

Explanation

Given that `R_m = 1.524 R_e` and `T_e` = 1year
According to kepler.s third law , we write `T^2 prop R^3`
` rArr (T_m/T_e)^2 = (R_m/R_e)^3 rArr T_m = T_e (R_m/R_e)^(3//2) rArr T_s = (1)/((1.524R_e)/(R_e))^(3//2) rArr T_s = (1) (1.524)^(3//2)` = 1.88 years
