Many planets are revolving around the fixed sun in circular orbits of different radius `(R)` and difference time period `(T)` To estimate the mass of the sun the orbital radius `(R)` and time period `(T)` of planets were noted. Then `"log"_(10)` T v/s `"log"_(10)R` curve was plotted.    The curve was found to be approximately straight line (as shown in) having   Estimate the mass of the sun .
