Elliptical Orbits
• Planets, comets, and asteroids orbit the Sun in ellipses
• Moons orbit the planets in ellipses• Artificial satellites orbit the Earth in ellipses• To understand orbits, you need to
understand ellipses (and other conic sections)
• But first, let’s study circular orbits: A circle is a special case of an ellipse

Circular Orbits
• Speed of satellite in circular orbit depends on radius
• If an orbiting object at a particular radius has a speed < vc, then it is in an elliptical orbit with lower energy
• If an orbiting object at radius r has a speed > vc, then it is in a higher-energy orbit: elliptical, parabolic, or hyperbolic
• Speed of satellite in circular orbit depends on radius
• If an orbiting object at a particular radius has a speed < vc, then it is in an elliptical orbit with lower energy
• If an orbiting object at radius r has a speed > vc, then it is in a higher-energy orbit: elliptical, parabolic, or hyperbolic

The Energy of an Orbit• Orbital energy is the sum of the kinetic
energy, mv2/2, and the potential energy, -µm/r• Customarily, we use the specific mechanical
energy, E (i.e., the energy per unit mass of satellite)
• From this definition of energy, we can develop the following facts
E<0 ⇔ orbit is elliptical or circularE=0 ⇔ orbit is parabolicE>0 ⇔ orbit is hyperbolic

a, e, i, Ω, and ω are constant6th orbital element is the angular measure of satellite motion in the orbit – 2 angles are commonly used:
• True anomaly, ν• Mean anomaly, M
