Answer:
For a uniform circular orbit of radius rr, the acceleration is
a = ω2r,ω = 2πT,(A)(A)a = ω2r,ω = 2πT,
where TT is the orbital period. Comparing eq. (A) with Kepler's third law
T2 ∝ r3,(B)(B)T2 ∝ r3,
we conclude that the gravitational acceleration
a ∝ r−2(C)(C)a ∝ r−2
is proportional to the inverse square distance rr.
hope it helps you and pls mark it as brainliest

Answer:
Kepler's third law of planetary motion was used by Newton to guess how the force of gravitation of the earth is weakened by distance. ... According to the inverse-square law of gravitaion, the force of gravitation on a planet should decrease as the square of the distance of the planet from the sun.
