Homework Statement
Pluto is 40 times further from the Sun than we are. How long is a year on Pluto? (Use Kepler's third law.)
Homework Equations
4∏^2/Gm=T^2/r^3
The Attempt at a Solution
Te^2(Earth period)=x*r^3
Tp^2(Pluto period)=x*(40r)^3
I don't know what to do exactly from here. I'm not even entirely sure that I'm going about this the right way.
Any help would be appreciated.
