A planet is discovered orbiting around a star in the galaxy Andromeda at the same distance from the star as Earth is from the Sun. If that star has four times the mass of our Sun, how does the orbital period of the planet compare to Earth's orbital period? A planet is discovered orbiting around a star in the galaxy Andromeda at the same distance from the star as Earth is from the Sun.

The orbital period of the  planet would be half that of the earth

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

         The mass of star is four times the mass of sun which can be mathematically represented as

Mathematically gravitational potential is given as

  Where M is mass one

               m is mass two

  From this equation we see that the attraction force is directly proportional to the mass of the star

    Thus we can say that

The centrifugal force that balances this attraction Force  is  

Where   is the centrifugal acceleration which can be mathematically represented as

          and  m is the mass

    Substituting this into the equation for centrifugal force

       substituting  into the equation above

Given that the diameter is the same and assuming that the mass is constant

         Then

Take square root of both sides

colorectal cancer may also develop from areas of abnormal cells in the lining of the colon or rectum. this area of abnormal cells is called dysplasia and is more commonly seen in people with certain inflammatory diseases of the bowel such as crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis.

firearm identification is the process of analyzing the bullets and cartridge cases left at a crime scene to determine if they came from a particular firearm. marks on the bullets and cartridges may be common to every firearm of that type. these are called class characteristics.
