To solve the problem of finding the number of years Mars requires to make one revolution around the Sun, we can use Kepler's Third Law of Planetary Motion, which states that the square of the period of revolution (T) of a planet is directly proportional to the cube of the semi-major axis of its orbit (R).
### Step-by-Step Solution:
1. **Understand Kepler's Third Law**:
According to Kepler's Third Law, we have the relationship:
\[
T^2 \propto R^3

The distance of the planet Jupiter from the Sun is 5.2 times that of the Earth. Find the period of Jupiter's revolution around the Sun.
The mean distance of Jupiter from the sun is nearly 5.2 times the corresponding distance between earth and sun. Using Kepler's Law, find the period of revolution of Jupiter in its orbit.
Assuming the average distance of the earth from the sun to be 149700000 km and the angle subtended by the sun at the eye of a person on the earth to be 32', find the sun's diameter.
The mean orbital radius of the Earth around the Sun is 1.5 xx 10^8 km . Estimate the mass of the Sun.
If the distance of earth form the sun were half the present value, how many days will make one year?
The ratio of mean distances of three planets from the sun are 0.5 : 1: 1:5 , then the square of time periods are in the ratio of
The largest and the shortest distance of the earth from the sun are r_(1) and r_(2) , its distance from the sun when it is at the perpendicular to the major axis of the orbit drawn from the sun
The solar constant is the amount of heat energy received per second per unit area of a perfectly black surface placed at a mean distance of the Earth form the Sun, in the absence of Earth's atmosphere, the surface being held perpendicular to the direction of Sun's rays. Its value is 1388 W//m^(2) . If the solar constant for the earth is 's'. The surface temperature of the sun is TK,D is the diameter of the sun, R is the mean distance of the Earth from the sun. The sun subtends a small angle 'theta' at the earth. Then correct options is/are:-
Average distance of the earth from the sun is L_(1) . If one year of the earth =D days, one year of another planet whose average distance from the sun is L_(2) will be
