"Light year" is a distance, not a speed. It's the distance light travels in one year, at the speed of 299,792,458 meters per second.
Answer:
The units of the orbital period P is <em>years </em> and the units of the semimajor axis a is <em>astronomical units</em>.
Explanation:
P² = a³ is the simplified version of Kepler's third law which governs the orbital motion of large bodies that orbit around a star. The orbit of each planet is an ellipse with the star at the focal point.
Therefore, if you square the year of each planet and divide it by the distance that it is from the star, you will get the same number for all the other planets.
Thus, the units of the orbital period P is <em>years </em> and the units of the semimajor axis a is <em>astronomical units</em>.
You've given the answer, right there in your question.
The "magnitude of gravity" is described in terms of the acceleration
due to it, and you just told us what that is.
We can also notice that the figure you gave is about 0.66 of the
acceleration due to gravity on the Earth's surface. That tells us that
the distance from the Earth's center at that height is about
(1 / √0.66) = 1.23 times
the Earth's radius, so the height is about 910 miles above the surface.

Explanation:
the gravitational pull also helps with that but
