2. Over several months an astronomer observes an exoplanet orbiting a distant star at a distance of 5.934 AU. Its orbit period was projected to be 3.875 years. Convert the orbit radius to meters and period to seconds. Use this information to calculate the mass M of the star in kg and solar mass units (Mo). Star Exoplanet Orbit radius (m) Orbit period (s) Star mass (kg) Star mass (Mo)
