Question
Calculate Venus orbits the Sun with a period of $1.94 \times 10^{7} \mathrm{~s}$. What is its average distance from the Sun?
Step 1
We can write this as: \[F_g = F_c\] where \(F_g\) is the gravitational force and \(F_c\) is the centripetal force. Show more…

Uranus orbits the Sun with a period of 84.0 years. What is its average distance from the Sun?
It takes Venus 225 Earth days to orbit the Sun. If the mean distance between Earth and Sun is 1.5x10^11, what is the mean distance between Earth and Sun? Give the value of t1=365 days.
Venus has a period of revolution of 225 Earth days. Find the distance between the Sun and Venus as a multiple of Earth’s average distance from the Sun. Enter the distance between the Sun and Venus (expressed as a multiple of the Earth's average distance from the Sun) with three significant figures.
