The table shows information about two of the major moons of Uranus. Moon Orbital Period (days) Average Distance from Uranus (km) Miranda 0 point 3 1 9 129 comma 390 Titania 8 point 7 1 435 comma 910 What is the average distance between Miranda and Uranus?
Which quantities decrease as the distance between a planet and the Sun increases? Choose three correct answers.
The table shows information about the moons of Mars. Moon Orbital Period (days) Average Distance from Mars (km) Phobos 0 point 3 1 9 9378 Deimos 23 comma 459 What is the orbital period of Deimos?
The mass of the Sun is 2 times 10 to the 30th power kilograms , and the mass of Saturn is 5 point 6 8 times 10 to the 26th power kilograms The distance between Saturn and the Sun is 9 point 5 8 AU Veronica is solving the equation to calculate the orbital period of Saturn, but there is an error in the equation. cap t is equal to square root of open paren the fraction with numerator 4 mathrm pi squared and denominator open paren 6 point 6 7 times 10 to the negative 11 power mathrm the fraction with numerator Nm squared and denominator kg squared close paren times open paren 2 times 10 to the 30th power mathrm kg close paren close paren times open paren 9 point 5 8 mathrm AU close paren cubed end root What should Veronica change to correct the equation?
The mass of the Sun is 2 times 10 to the 30th power kilograms , and the distance between Neptune and the Sun is 30 AU. What is the orbital period of Neptune in Earth years?
