Name: You are asked to verify Kepler's Laws of Planetary Motion. For these exercises, assume that each planet moves in an orbit given by the vector valued function 𝐫. Let r=𝐫, let G represent the universal gravitational constant, let M represent the mass of the sun, and let m represent the mass of the planet. Prove Kepler's Third Law: The square of the period of a planet's orbit is proportional to the cube of the mean distance between the planet and the sun.
