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 average distance r between the sun and planet i.e. T2=Kr3, here K is constant. If the masses of the sun and planet are M and m respectively, then as per Newton's law of gravitation, the force of attraction between them is F=GMmr2, here G is the gravitational constant. The relation between G and K is described as:
1. GK=4π2
2. GMK=4π2
3. K=G
4. K=1G
