Answer 1

Answer:

Let m and M be the masses of the earth and the sun respectively and v the speed of the earth in circular orbit. To keep the earth in circular orbit, the gravitational force

r

2

GMm

must balance the centripetal force

r

mv

, i.e.

r

2

GMm

=

r

mv

2

or M=

G

v

2

r

Also, v=

T

2πr

. Using this, we get M=

T

G

4π

or M∝

T
