Calculating the Period of Mars in Earth Years Using Gravitational Equations
t^2 = (2.28 x 10^11/1.50 x 10^11)^3 t^2 = sqrt of 3.5 t = 1.87 years or about 2 years- krimor09

Calculating the Period of Mars in Earth Years Using Gravitational Equations
Dm= 2.28 x 10^8m De= 1.50 x 10^11m Te= 365.2 days or 1 year Tm= ? (T/1 yr)^2 = (2.28 x 10^8m/1.50 x 10^11m)^3 (T^2/1yr) = 3.5 x 10^57) T^2 = sqrt of 3.5 x 10^57 = 5.9 x 10^28- krimor09

okay, i tried this way out (t/365.2days)^2 = (2.28x10^11/1.50x10^11)^3 (T/365.2) = square root of 3.5 T^2/133371 = 1.87 multiply 133371 to both sides t^2 = the square root of 1.87 X 133371 T = 499- krimor09
