Kepler’s laws of planetary motion

The radius of gyration is occasionally used to express a body’s moment of inertia about an axis. The radius of gyration can be defined as the imaginary distance from the centroid at which the cross-sectional area is believed to be centered at the point to achieve the same moment of inertia. The significance of the […]

Issac Newton was on a quest to explain two aspects of the moon orbiting around the earth. Firstly, the moon should crash to the ground if all objects accelerate towards the earth’s centre. Secondly, what makes the moon move in circular orbits rather than a straight line even though, according to Galileo Galilei, objects tend

The main contribution to the improvement of Copernicus’s model has been the theories given by Kepler, which extended Copernicus’s model further. Along with Copernicus, Kepler also agreed with Copernicus’s theory of the eccentricity of planetary orbits as zero. At the same time, it was also found that the orbit in which the planets revolve is

Introduction A centripetal pressure (derived from the Latin words centrum, meaning “middle,” and peter, meaning “to seek”) is a force that causes a frame to follow a curved path. Its path is always orthogonal to the frame’s movement and in the direction of the constant factor of the path’s instant middle of curvature.  Isaac Newton

Introduction In a rigid body, the centre of mass is fixed in reference towards the body, and it will be positioned at the centroid if the body has a uniform density based on its centre of gravity. The centre of mass of open-shaped and hollow objects can occasionally be found outside the physical body. The

Kepler’s first law is primarily concerned with gravity’s centripetal force, but it also includes a description of object motion in the presence of a central inverse square force. Apart from this, Kepler’s first law also accurately describes the prediction of the position and velocity of the planets at any time. With the help of this,

Kepler’s theories extended Copernicus’ model further. They were the most important addition to the advancement of Copernicus’ model. Kepler also accepted Copernicus’ theory of planetary orbit eccentricity as zero. It was discovered that the planets’ orbits follow a curved course, their centre point is the Sun, and their speed in the primary orbit is constant.
