Q2. Venus is the second-closest planet to the Sun in our solar system. As such, it takes only 225 Earth days to complete one orbit around the Sun. The mass of the Sun is approximated to be msun 1.989 × 10³⁰ kg. If we assume Venus' orbit to be a perfect = circle, determine: a) The angular speed of Venus, in rad/s; b) The distance between Venus and the Sun, in km; c) The tangential velocity of Venus, in km/s.
