Kepler's third law states that the square of the period of revolution T of a planet around the sun is proportional to the third power of the average distance r between sun and planet i.e., T2=Kr3, here K is constant. If the masses of sun and planet are M and m respectively then as per Newton's law of gravitation force of attraction between them is F=GMmr2, here G is gravitational constant. The relation between G and K is described as:
