suppose the new planet is discovered between earth and mars.its time period would be.
Answers
I think its time would be more than 500 years.
Answer:
See this is a very scientific question, but the right answer to this question may depend on a number of factors that have to be considered.
Explanation:
First of all you may have to consider the size of the planet formed between Earth and Mars, as its size would definitely affect its rotation period.
Another factor to consider is the speed at which it is revolving around its own axis and the speed at which it is rotating on its path around the Sun.
The third and the most important factor to consider is the path of its rotation. Generally after Earth and before Mars, we can never be sure that it is going to rotate along the same path as earth. If its path or rotation is slightly more elliptical as compared to earth, then its time period of rotation around the sun and its own axis would also be affected.
If we consider that it follows the same path as earth or Mars then its time period would also depend on the fact that either it is more closer to Earth or to Mars.
