Kepler’s (empirical) Laws• Kepler’s First Law:
– All planets move in elliptical orbits with the sun at one focus
• Kepler’s Second Law:– The radius vector drawn from the Sun to a planet sweeps out equal areas in equal times, dA/dt = const. (the law of equal areas)
• Kepler’s Third Law: – The square of the orbital period of any planet is proportional to the
cube of the semimajor axis of the elliptical orbit.
Today we can understand the physical reasons for these laws …
Let’s remind us first of the geometry of the ellipse and then discuss the three laws.

Kepler found that the orbit of Mars was an ellipse, not a circle.

Kepler had access to very good data from the astronomer Tycho Brahe in Prague. See table for today’s data.
Kepler’s Third Law
After many years of work Kepler found an intriguing correlation between the orbital periods and the length of the semimajor axis of orbits.

Measuring G• G was first measured by
Henry Cavendish in 1798• The apparatus shown here
allowed the attractive force between two spheres to cause the rod to rotate
• The mirror amplifies the motion
• It was repeated for various masses

G =6.67 ×10−11 Nm 2 / kg2

Gravitational and inertial mass
• Gravitation is a force that acts on the gravitational mass (the masses are the source)
• Newton’s Law of motion acts on the inertial mass
• In principle, they are not necessarily related, that the gravitational mass mg is not the same as mi
(but they are, up to the current experimental accuracy)

• decreases to one-half of the original amount. • decreases to one-quarter of the original amount. • does not change. • decreases to one-third of the original amount. • decreases to one-ninth of the original amount.

From work to gravitational potential energy.
In the example before, it does not matter on what path the person is elevated to 2 Earth radii above. Only the final height (or distance) matters for the total amount of work performed.
