To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the Third Law of Kepler.
Kepler's third law tells us that the period is defined as
The given data are given with respect to known constants, for example the mass of the sun is
The radius between the earth and the sun is given by
From the mentioned star it is known that this is 8.2 time mass of sun and it is 6.2 times the distance between earth and the sun
Therefore:
Substituting in Kepler's third law:
Therefore the period of this star is 3.8years
It's impossible to describe WHERE a place is without mentioning ANOTHER place.

The question is trying to get you to realize that to get from a reference point to a certain position, you have to know
How far
and
In what direction.
Answer:
Explanation:
The frequency equation for waves is
where f is the frequency, v is the velocity, and lambda is the wavelength. Filling in:
so
v = .26(25) and
v = 6.5 meters/second
