Jupiter's semimajor axis is 7.78×1011 m. the mass of the sun is 1.99×1030 kg. (a) what is the period of jupiter's orbit in seconds? (b) what is the period in earth years? assume that one earth year is exactly 365 days, with 24 hours in each day.

Explanation:

It is given that,

Semi major axis of the Jupiter,

Mass of the sun,

(a) Let T is the period of Jupiter's orbit. It is given by :

(b) We know that,

or

T = 11.859 earth years

Hence, this is the required solution.

the answer would be a

the answer is 3.1 his answer is wrong mines is right
