NEWTON'S LAW OF UNIVERSAL AND KEPLER'S PLANETARY MOTION Flashcards
This force law is an example of an inverse-square law that varies as the inverse square of the separation.
Newton’s Law of Universal of Planetary Motion
The force acts so that the objects are always attracted to one another.
Newton’s Law of Universal of Planetary Motion
It states that “the planets move in elliptical ORBITS with the Sun at one focus”.
Kepler’s First Law
Point in the orbit of a planet, asteroid or comet that is NEAREST to the sun.
Perihelion
Point FARTHEST from the sun.
Aphelion
states that “a line drawn from the sun to any planet sweeps out equal areas in EQUAL time interval, that is, the AREA divided by time, called the areal velocity is constant.”
Kepler’s Second Law
states that “the square of the PERIOD is proportional to the cube of the semi-major axis of the orbit.”
Kepler’s Third Law
Is the force acting on a body moving in a curved path that is directed toward the center of rotation.
Centripetal Force
he’s theories is called keplers law
