Centripetal Force

A particle, body, object or certain mass while travelling in a rotational path or semicircular path, experiences an inertia force. If that inertia force pulls the towards the inward of the imaginary circle in the rotation, it is termed as centripetal force.

Newtons version of Kepler's third law is P2=4pi2/(G(M1+M2)) x a3. Since the square of the period P varies inversely with the Sum of the masses (M1+M2), the period itself depends on the inverse square root of the object masses. If a solar system has a star that is 3.9 times as massive as our Sun, and if that solar system has Earths exact twin, what is the orbital period of that planets months ?
