Suppose Keplers laws were as follows: 

(i) A planets orbit around the Sun is a circle with the Sun occupying a point on that circle.

(ii) The line connecting the planet to the Sun sweeps out equal areas in equal times.

In the spirit of Newtons deduction of the gravitational force law in our (actual) Solar System, determine the gravitational force law that would underlie planetary motion from these versions of Keplers laws

Step by Step Solution

There are 3 Steps involved in it
