Newton’s Universal Law of Gravity and Satellite Motion Newton’s Universal Law of Gravity and Satellite Motion

Newton and Gravity There is a popular story that Newton was sitting under an Newton and Gravity There is a popular story that Newton was sitting under an apple tree, an apple fell on his head, and he suddenly thought of the Universal Law of Gravitation. As in all such legends, this is almost certainly not true in its details, but the story contains elements of what actually happened

Newton Isaac Newton, formulated a theory of gravity. Legend has it that he was Newton Isaac Newton, formulated a theory of gravity. Legend has it that he was prompted by watching an apple fall. Newton speculated that the same force that caused object to drop to the ground was responsible for the moon’s orbit. Newton knew an apple falls 4. 9 m in one second. He calculated the moon to fall 1. 4 mm in one second. The moon was known to be 60 times further from the center of the Earth than the surface of the Earth. It was reasonable to suggest that the force was a function of the distance between objects.

Moon and Apple Note that 4. 9 m/60 = 8. 2 cm, but 4. Moon and Apple Note that 4. 9 m/60 = 8. 2 cm, but 4. 9 m/3600 = 1. 4 mm which is the distance Newton calculated the Moon would fall in one second. Thus, he reasoned, force would have to be proportional to the inverse square of the distance between the two objects Fgrav α 1 / d 2

Universal Law of Gravitation Gravity is universal and everything is pulling on every other Universal Law of Gravitation Gravity is universal and everything is pulling on every other object, gravity is an “attractive” force. Newton’s Law states that the gravitational force between two objects is directly proportional to the mass of the objects and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the objects center of mass. F ~ m 1 m 2/d 2

Gravity Business • Having recently completely mastering the Newton’s law of gravitation, Hillary has Gravity Business • Having recently completely mastering the Newton’s law of gravitation, Hillary has devised a new business plan. Hillary learned that objects weigh different amounts at different distances from Earth's center. Her plan involves buying gold by the weight at one altitude and then selling it at another altitude at the same price per weight. Should Hillary buy at a high altitude and sell at a low altitude or vice versa? • To succeed Hillary must buy High and sell Low (altitude)… note this is the opposite of the goal on Wall street where all investors want to buy low and sell high.

From Newton to Einstein • General relativity or the General theory of relativity is From Newton to Einstein • General relativity or the General theory of relativity is the geometric theory of gravitation published by Albert Einstein in 1915/16. It unifies special relativity and Newton's law of universal gravitation, resulting in a theory in which gravity is a property of the geometry of space and time. • Einstein himself had shown in 1915 how it explained the anomalous perihelion advance of the planet Mercury and a 1919 expedition led by Eddington had announced confirmation of general relativity's prediction for the deflection of the light of distant stars by the Sun (instantly catapulting Einstein to world fame.

Precession of Mercury • An early success of general relativity was that theory offered Precession of Mercury • An early success of general relativity was that theory offered a straightforward explanation for an anomalous perihelion shift of the planet Mercury, which had been discovered in 1859 but had remained mysterious. This agreement between theory and experiment confirmed for Einstein that he had at last identified the correct form of the gravitational field equations.

Lensing • A grid of points (see expanded image), representing background quasars, is gravitationally Lensing • A grid of points (see expanded image), representing background quasars, is gravitationally lensed by a foreground galaxy.

Rather than creating a single image of the quasar, the gravitational lens creates multiple Rather than creating a single image of the quasar, the gravitational lens creates multiple images. We follow the light rays from the Earth to the apparent locations of the quasar. If the galaxy were perfectly symmetric with respect to the line between the quasar and the Earth, then we would see a ring of quasars! Now, if the massive galaxy is off-center (as might be expected) with respect to the line between the quasar and the Earth, then the two light paths would be different distances around the galaxy.

Gravitational Lensing • The deflection of light by gravity can have an intriguing side Gravitational Lensing • The deflection of light by gravity can have an intriguing side effect: a massive object between the observer and a distant target object makes it possible for the observer to see multiple distorted images of the target. This and similar effects are known as gravitational lensing.

Einstein General Relativity • There are questions for which even Einstein had no answers. Einstein General Relativity • There are questions for which even Einstein had no answers. For example, if gravity is a force that causes all matter to be attracted to all other matter, why are atoms mostly empty space inside? (There is really hardly any actual matter in an atom!) How are the forces that hold atoms together different from gravity? Is it possible that all the forces we see at work in nature are really different sides of the same basic force or structure?

Satellites • When you drop something it falls straight down, when you throw something Satellites • When you drop something it falls straight down, when you throw something it follows a curved path. The larger the horizontal velocity the further it travels before it hits the ground. • Is it possible to throw it fast enough that it will not hit the ground?

Sputnik History changed on October 4, 1957, when the Soviet Union successfully launched Sputnik Sputnik History changed on October 4, 1957, when the Soviet Union successfully launched Sputnik I. The world's first artificial satellite was about the size of a basketball, weighed only 183 pounds, and took about 98 minutes to orbit the Earth on its elliptical path. That launch ushered in new political, military, technological, and scientific developments. While the Sputnik launch was a single event, it marked the start of the space age and the U. S. -U. S. S. R space race. http: //history. nasa. gov/sputnik. wav
