Determine the orbital period of the faster planet

Reference no: EM13275051

Two newly discovered planets follow circular orbits around a star in a distant part of the galaxy. orbital speeds of the planets are determined to be 45.1 km/s and 57.3 km/s. The slower planet's orbital period is 7.70 years.

(a) What is the mass of the star?

(b) What is the orbital period of the faster planet, in years?
