1 Chapter 3 - Gravity and Motion Copyright (c) The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. Permission required for reproduction or display.
2 In 1687 Isaac Newton published the Principia in which he set out his concept of the universal nature of gravity and also his law of gravity.the line of thought leading to his mature theory of gravity started with an exchange of letters with Robert Hooke in , but it did not become precise until after a visit from Edmund Halley in Halley, like Hooke before him, asked about the trajectory of a body under the influence of inverse-square law forces directed towards a given center.
3 Gravity gives the Universe its structure It is a universal force that causes all objects to pull on all other objects everywhere It holds objects together It is responsible for holding the Earth in its orbit around the Sun, the Sun in its orbit around the Milky Way, and the Milky Way in its path within the Local Group Gravity
4 The Problem of Astronomical Motion Astronomers of antiquity did not connect gravity and astronomical motion Galileo investigated this connection with experiments using projectiles and balls rolling down planks He put science on a course to determine laws of motion and to develop the scientific method
5 Inertia - the property that summarizes a body's tendency to stay in the state of rest or motion Galileo established the idea of inertia A body at rest tends to remain at rest A body in motion tends to remain in motion Through experiments with inclined planes, Galileo demonstrated the idea of inertia and the importance of forces (friction)
6 Inertia and Newton s First Law This concept was incorporated in Newton s First Law of Motion: A body continues in a state of rest or uniform motion in a straight line unless made to change that state by forces acting on it.
7 Newton s First Law Important ideas of Newton s First Law Force: A push or a pull The force referred to is a net force The law implies that if an object is not moving with constant velocity, then a nonzero net force must be present
8 Orbital Motion and Gravity Although not the first to propose gravity as being responsible for celestial motion, Newton was the first to: Spell out the properties of gravity Write the equations of gravity-induced motion Newton deduced that: The Moon s motion could be explained by the existence of a force (to deviate the Moon from a straight inertial trajectory) and that such a force decreased with distance Orbital motion could be understood as a projectile moving parallel to the Earth s surface at such a speed that its gravitational deflection toward the surface is offset by the surface s curvature away from the projectile
9 Newton hypothesized that moon was simply a projectile circling Earth under the attraction of gravity 1. Newton had to test hypothesis 2. Compared fall of apple to fall of moon
10 Newton reasoned that gravitational attraction was diluted by distance a. Moon is 60 times farther from the center of the Earth than the apple b. Calculated difference to be 1/(60) 2
11 Newton s law of universal gravitation states that every object attracts every other object with a force that for any two objects is directly proportional to the mass of each object. Newton deduced that the force decreases as the square of the distance between the centers of mass of the objects increases.

18 Newton s Law of Universal Gravitation Law states: every object attracts every other object with a force that for any two objects is directly proportional to the mass of each object 1. The greater the mass the greater the attraction 2. The farther away the objects are from each other, the less the force of attraction between them
19 Gravity and Distance: The Inverse Square Law A.Inverse Square Law when quantity varies as the inverse square of its distance from its source B. Also applies to light, radiation, and sound
20 The strength of its force on objects follows the inversesquare law (so g weakens with increasing distance from Earth)
21 Astronomical Motion As seen earlier, planets move along curved (elliptical) paths, or orbits. Speed and direction is changing Must there be a force at work? Yes!
22 Gravity is that force!
23 Ocean Tides Newton showed that the ocean tides are caused by differences in the gravitational pull of the moon on opposite sides of earth 1. Oceans bulge about 1 meter on opposite sides of Earth 2. Because Earth spins, the tides change as Earth rotates
24
25 Sun also contributes to tides 1. Sun s pull 180 times greater than moon, but contributes only half as much as the moon 2. Because difference in gravitational pullby sun on opposite sides of Earth very small (0.017% compared to 6.7% for moon's gravitation)
26 Orbital Motion Using Newton s First Law A cannonball fired at slow speed experiences one force gravity, pulling it downward A cannonball fired at a higher speed feels the same force, but goes farther
27 Orbital Motion Using Newton s First Law At a sufficiently high speed, the cannonball travels so far that the ground curves out from under it. The cannonball literally misses the ground! The ball, now in orbit, still experiences the pull of gravity!
28 Newton s Second Law: Motion Motion An object is said to be in uniform motion if its speed and direction remain unchanged An object in uniform motion is said to have a constant velocity A force will cause an object to have nonuniform motion, a changing velocity Acceleration is defined as a change in velocity
29 Newton s 2nd Law: Acceleration Acceleration An object increasing or decreasing in speed along a straight line is accelerating An object with constant speed moving is a circle is accelerating Acceleration is produced by a force and experiments show the two are proportional
30 Mass Newton s Second Law: Mass Mass is the amount of matter an object contains Technically, mass is a measure of an object s inertia Mass is generally measured in kilograms Mass should not be confused with weight, which is a force related to gravity weight may change from place to place, but mass does not
31 Newton s Second Law of Motion F = ma Equivalently, the amount of acceleration (a) that an object undergoes is proportional to the force applied (F) and inversely proportional to the mass (m) of the object This equation applies for any force, gravitational or otherwise
32 F = ma
33 Newton s Third Law of Motion When two objects interact, they create equal and opposite forces on each other This is true for any two objects, including the Sun and the Earth!
34 Newton s Law of Universal Gravity Everything attracts everything else!!
35 Measuring an Object s Mass Using Orbital Motion Basic Setup of an Orbital Motion Problem Assume a small mass object orbits around a much more massive object Massive object can be assumed at rest (very little acceleration) Assume orbit shape of small mass is a circle centered on large mass Using Newton s Second Law Acceleration in a circular orbit must be: a = v 2 /r where v is the constant orbital speed and r is the radius of the orbit The force is that of gravity
36 Measuring an Object s Mass Using Orbital Motion Method of Solution Equate F = mv 2 /r to F = GMm/r 2 and solve for v: One can also solve for M: v = (GM/r) 1/2 M = (v 2 r)/g v can be expressed in terms of the orbital period (P) on the small mass and its orbital radius: v = 2pr/P Combining these last two equations: M = (4p 2 r 3 )/(GP 2 ) This last equation in known as Kepler s modified third law and is often used to calculate the mass of a large celestial object from the orbital period and radius of a much smaller mass
37 Surface Gravity Surface gravity is the acceleration a mass undergoes at the surface of a celestial object (e.g., an asteroid, planet, or star) Surface gravity: Determines the weight of a mass at a celestial object s surface Influences the shape of celestial objects Influences whether or not a celestial object has an atmosphere
38 Surface Gravity Calculations Surface gravity is determined from Newton s Second Law and the Law of Gravity: ma = GMm/R 2 where M and R are the mass and radius of the celestial object, and m is the mass of the object whose acceleration a we wish to know The surface gravity, denoted by g, is then: g = GM/R 2 Notice dependence of g on M and R, but not m g Earth = 9.8 m/s 2 g Earth /g Moon = 5.6 and g Jupiter /g Earth = 3
39 Escape Velocity To overcome a celestial object s gravitational force and escape into space, a mass must obtain a critical speed called the escape velocity Escape velocity: Determines if a spacecraft can move from one planet to another Influences whether or not a celestial object has an atmosphere Relates to the nature of black holes
40 Escape Velocity
41 Escape Velocity Calculation The escape velocity, V esc, is determined from Newton s laws of motion and the Law of Gravity and is given by: V esc = (2GM/R) 1/2 where M and R are the mass and radius of the celestial object from which the mass wishes to escape Notice dependence of V esc on M and R, but not m V esc,earth = 11 km/s, V esc,moon = 2.4 km/s
42 Escape Velocity
