4 Navigation When an observer is traveling along with a moving point, for example the passengers in an airplane, it can be useful to have a right-handed coordinate system travel with the observer. Q: How do we create a moving coordinate system? A: We already have the unit tangent vector T(t) = r (t) r (t) which is in the same direction as the motion. We need only two more vectors perpendicular to it.
5 Principal Unit Normal Vector Definition The principal unit normal vector N(t) is a unit vector having the same direction as T (t) and is defined by N(t) = T (t) T (t).
6 Principal Unit Normal Vector Definition The principal unit normal vector N(t) is a unit vector having the same direction as T (t) and is defined by Note: N(t) r (t) r (t) N(t) = T (t) T (t).
7 Direction of N(t) By the Chain Rule, T (t) = dt dt = dt ds ds dt so N(t) = T (t) T (t) = = = 1 κ dt ds dt ds dt ds dt ds ds dt dt ds ds dt (since r (t) = ds dt (since κ = dt ds ) > 0) dt points in the direction T is turning and thus N(t) always ds points to the concave side of the curve.

24 Osculating Circle Definition For a curve C in the xy-plane, defined by the vector-valued function r(t), if the curvature κ 0 when t = t 0, we define the radius of curvature to be 1/κ. The center of curvature is the terminal point of the vector r(t) + 1 κn(t) (when κ 0). The osculating circle or circle of curvature is the circle whose center is the center of curvature and whose radius is the radius of curvature (when κ 0).

31 Tangential and Normal Components of Acceleration The unit tangent and principal unit normal vectors can explain the forces which work to stabilize and destabilize an object as it moves on a path. The velocity of an object moving along a path described by r(t) is v(t) = r (t) = r (t) T(t) = ds dt T(t).
32 Tangential and Normal Components of Acceleration The unit tangent and principal unit normal vectors can explain the forces which work to stabilize and destabilize an object as it moves on a path. The velocity of an object moving along a path described by r(t) is v(t) = r (t) = r (t) T(t) = ds dt T(t). The acceleration is given by a(t) = d dt ( ) ds dt T(t) = d 2 s ds T(t) + dt2 dt T (t).

45 Kepler s Laws of Planetary Motion 1 Each planet follows an elliptical orbit, with the sun at one focus. 2 The line segment joining the sun to a planet sweeps out equal areas in equal times. 3 If T is the time required for a given planet to make one orbit of the sun and if the length of the major axes of its elliptical orbit is 2a, then T 2 = ka 3 for some constant k.
46 Kepler s Laws of Planetary Motion 1 Each planet follows an elliptical orbit, with the sun at one focus. 2 The line segment joining the sun to a planet sweeps out equal areas in equal times. 3 If T is the time required for a given planet to make one orbit of the sun and if the length of the major axes of its elliptical orbit is 2a, then T 2 = ka 3 for some constant k. We can derive Kepler s three laws from two of Newton s Laws of Motion.
47 Assumptions 1 The sun is at the origin and the planet is at the terminal point of vector r(t).
48 Assumptions 1 The sun is at the origin and the planet is at the terminal point of vector r(t). 2 The gravitational force of attraction has a magnitude which is proportional to the inverse of the square of the distance separating the sun and the planet.
49 Assumptions 1 The sun is at the origin and the planet is at the terminal point of vector r(t). 2 The gravitational force of attraction has a magnitude which is proportional to the inverse of the square of the distance separating the sun and the planet. F(t) = ma(t) (Newton s 2nd Law) = GmM r(t) r(t) 2 r(t)
50 Kepler s Laws (continued) Let r = r(t) and note that r(t) is a unit vector, call it u. r(t) which implies F = ma = GmM r 2 u
51 Kepler s Laws (continued) Let r = r(t) and note that which implies r(t) is a unit vector, call it u. r(t) F = ma = GmM r 2 u a = GM r 2 u. Note: this says the acceleration is always in the opposite direction of r(t), toward the sun.
52 Kepler s Laws (continued) Consider d dt (r(t) v(t)) = r (t) v(t) + r(t) v (t) = v(t) v(t) + r(t) a(t) = = 0
53 Kepler s Laws (continued) Consider d dt (r(t) v(t)) = r (t) v(t) + r(t) v (t) = v(t) v(t) + r(t) a(t) = = 0 Hence r v = c a constant vector. This implies the orbit of the planet must lie in plane.
54 Kepler s First Law 1 Each planet follows an elliptical orbit, with the sun at one focus.
55 Kepler s First Law 1 Each planet follows an elliptical orbit, with the sun at one focus. Assume the planet s orbit is in the xy-plane so that c is parallel to the z-axis.
56 Kepler s First Law 1 Each planet follows an elliptical orbit, with the sun at one focus. Assume the planet s orbit is in the xy-plane so that c is parallel to the z-axis. Since r(t) = ru, then v(t) = r (t) = d dr dt (ru) = dt u + r du dt
57 Kepler s First Law (continued) c = r v ( dr = r dt u + r du ) dt = r dr dt u + r r du dt = dr ( dt r u + r 2 = r 2 ( u du dt ) u du dt )
58 Kepler s First Law (continued) ( a c = a r 2 u du dt = GM r 2 u r 2 = GMu ) ( u du dt ) ( u du dt = GM u du }{{ dt u (u }{{} u ) du } dt =1 =0 = GM du dt )
59 Kepler s First Law (continued) GM du dt = a c = dv dt c = d (v c) (since c is constant) dt GMu + b = v c (where b is constant) Note: since v c is orthogonal to c then v c is a vector in the xy-plane. Vector u is in the xy-plane, so b must also be in the xy-plane. We can choose b to be parallel to i.
60 Kepler s First Law (continued) c 2 = c c = (r v) c = r (v c) = ru (GMu + b) = rgm u }{{} u +ru b =1 = rgm + r b cos θ
61 Kepler s First Law (continued) c 2 = c c = (r v) c = r (v c) = ru (GMu + b) = rgm u }{{} u +ru b =1 = rgm + r b cos θ Remark: Angle θ is the angle between r and i.
62 Kepler s First Law (continued) Letting c = c and b = b we may solve for r: r = = c 2 GM + b cos θ ed 1 + e cos θ where e = b GM and d = c2 b.
63 Kepler s First Law (continued) Letting c = c and b = b we may solve for r: r = = c 2 GM + b cos θ ed 1 + e cos θ where e = b GM and d = c2 b. This is the equation of an ellipse in polar coordinates!
