1 Gravitation & Kepler s Laws
2 What causes YOU to be pulled down to the surface of the earth? THE EARTH.or more specifically the EARTH S MASS. Anything that has MASS has a gravitational pull towards it. F g M m What the proportionality above is saying is that for there to be a FORCE DUE TO GRAVITY (F g ) on something there must be at least 2 masses involved, where one can be larger than the other. The force of gravity (F g ) is directly proportional ( ) to the masses (M and m) of the objects
3 As you move AWAY from the earth, your DISTANCE increases and the FORCE DUE TO GRAVITY decreases. This is a special INVERSE relationship called an Inverse-Square. F g 1 r 2 The r stands for SEPARATION DISTANCE and is the distance between the CENTERS OF MASS of the 2 objects. We use the symbol r as it often represents the radius. Gravitation is closely related to circular motion as you will discover later.
4 Constant of Universal Gravitation, 6.67x10 11 m³/kg s² Force of attraction F g = m 1 m 2 G r 2 Masses of two objects being attracted to each other Square of the distance between the objects
5 EXAMPLE: Two planets have the same masses but one is larger than the other. Neither planet has an atmosphere. Which of the following would be the same for objects of equal mass near the surfaces of the two planets? I. The final velocity of the objects if they are dropped from the same height. II. The momentum of the objects right before hitting the ground if they are dropped from the same height. III. The centripetal force acting on the masses if they are attached to identical strings and are spun in vertical circles with the same tangential velocities. A) I only B) II only C) I and II only D) II and III only E) None of the above are the same Since the force of gravity is different on each planet because the radii of the planets are different, the final velocities will be different v = 2gh, the momenta will be different p = m v, and the centripetal force will be different: F c = m v2 r.
6 P.O.D. 1. Two planets have the same size but different masses and no atmospheres. Which of the following would be different for objects of equal mass on the surfaces of the two planets? I. The rate at which each would fall freely. II. The weight of the objects on weight scales. III. The distance that the objects stretch a spring vertically. A) I only B) II only C) I and II only D) II and III only E) I, II, and III

8 Gravity (g) vs. Force of attraction (F g )? Let s set the 2 equations for the force of attraction equal to each other since they BOTH represent your weight or force due to gravity F g mg Use m m Fg G r Mm mg G 2 r g M G r this Use when you are on the earth this when you are LEAVING the earth g SOLVED FOR g 11 (6.67x10 )(5.97x (6.37x10 ) 24 ) 9.81m / s 2 M Mass of the Earth 5.97x10 24 kg, r dist. from center of the Earth 6.37x10 6 m
9 Example How far from the earth's surface must an astronaut in space be if she is to feel a gravitational acceleration that is half what she would feel on the earth's surface? Mm mg G 2 r M M Mass of g G 2 r r radius of g M G (r r (r r earth ) 2 earth ) 2 G M g g(r r earth ) 2 G M r (6.67x10 the Earth 5.97x10 the Earth 6.37x10 )(5.97x ) 6 24 kg m 6.37x10 6 (r r earth r r ) 2 earth r G M g G M g GM g Earth r Earth r = m This value is four tenths the radius of Earth.
10 P.O.D. 2: A cat weighing 600 N on earth travels to a planet with 4 times the mass and twice the radius of Earth. The cat's weight on this planet is most nearly A) 300 N B) N C) 600 N D) N E) 1200 N
11 The Period of a Pendulum Ans. The period of a pendulum is given by T = 2π L g, where T is the period (in s) for the pendulum to go back and forth, L is the length of the pendulum (in m), and g is the value of gravity (in m/s 2 )
12 Example (a) What is the period of a pendulum on the earth s surface if it has a length of 3 m? Ans. The period of a pendulum is given by T = 2π L g Substituting our given values: T = 2π L g = 2π 3m 9.8 m s 2 = s
13 Example (b) What is the period of the pendulum if it is at a height of 30 km? First we need to find the value of g at 30 km = 30,000 m g M r M r 11 G g (6.67x10 ) 2 2 M Mass of r radius of the Earth 5.97x10 the Earth 6.37x kg, m g ( ( )( ) 30, Substituting our given values: T = 2π L g = 2π 3m 2 ) 9.72m / s 9.72 m 2 s 2 = s Compared to 3.48 s on the previous slide
14 P.O.D. 3. A simple pendulum has a period of approximately 2.0 s on earth. What is its period on an imaginary planet the same size as earth, but half the mass of earth? A) 0.5 s B) 1.0 s C) 1.4 s D) 2.0 s E) 2.8 s
15 Energy Considerations Work is the integral of a Force function, F(r), with respect to displacement, r. REMEMBER: Work was the area under the curve of the Force vs. distance graph Substituting in the basic expression for gravitational force F g = G M m for F(r) r 2 Pulling out the constants and bringing the denominator to the numerator. Integrating This formula gives you the work done by a mass against the variable force of gravity as the object gets further and further away from the planet The negative sign should not be surprising as we already knew that Work was equal to the negative change in U or mgh.
16 Example What is the radius of a planet if a rocket of mass 4000 kg requires 24,000 J of work to overcome the planet s force of gravity? The planet has a mass of kg. M m G W W G Mass of mm r the Planet work done against 3.6x10 Mass of the rocket 4000 kg, gravity r 30 G kg, J mm W Universal Gravitation Constant 6.67x10 11 N m 2 kg 2 r ( Nm kg )(4000 kg)( ,000J 30 kg) 4,002 m
17 P.O.D. 4. A planet has a mass 4 times as great and a radius 2 times as great as that of Planet Earth. How many times more work would a rocket have to do to overcome the pull of gravity on it by the planet? A) The same B) Two times C) Four times D) Eight times E) Sixteen times
18 Escape Velocity speed needed to escape an object s gravitational pull. Very far from center of earth: very small v esc Consider a rocket leaving the earth. It usually goes up, slows down, and then returns to earth. There exists an initial minimum speed that when reached the rockets will continue on forever. Let's use conservation of energy to analyze this situation!... Farther from center of earth: small v esc Surface of earth: large v esc Speed greater than v esc. Speeds smaller than v esc.
19 Escape Speed We know that ENERGY will never change. As the rocket leaves the earth it's kinetic is large and its potential is small. As it ascends, there is a transfer of energy such that the difference between the kinetic and potential will always equal to ZERO.
20 Escape Speed Set the potential energy equal to the kinetic energy and solve for v, to find the ESCAPE VELOCITY:
21 P.O.D. 5. a. How many times greater is the Earth s escape velocity compared to Mars? b. How many times greater is Jupiter s escape velocity compared to Earth s?
22 Newton s Cannon Why don t satellites fall to the earth if they are being pulled to it by gravity? If the cannon shoots a cannon ball at a speed of say 8 m/s, the following will happen It falls to earth pulled by gravity
23 Newton s Cannon Why don t satellites fall to the earth if they are being pulled to it by gravity? If the cannon shoots a cannon ball at say 80 m/s, the following will happen
24 Newton s Cannon Why don t satellites fall to the earth if they are being pulled to it by gravity? If the cannon shoots a cannon ball at slightly less than 8000 m/s, the following will happen The cannon ball will fall at the base of the mountain.
25 Newton s Cannon Why don t satellites fall to the earth if they are being pulled to it by gravity? If the cannon shoots a cannon ball at 8000 m/s, the following will happen The cannon ball will orbit in a circular path
26 Newton s Cannon Why don t satellites fall to the earth if they are being pulled to it by gravity? If the cannon shoots a cannon ball at a velocity slightly over 8000 m/s, what will happen? The cannon ball will orbit in an elliptical path
27 Why doesn t the earth crash into the sun if it is attracted to it? Ans: the earth is always falling towards the sun. The reason it doesn t crash into the earth is that it is moving fast enough that it always misses. The earth also has inertia that keeps it on its path.
28 Kepler's Laws There are three laws that Johannes Kepler formulated when he was studying the heavens THE LAW OF ORBITS - "All planets move in elliptical orbits, with the Sun at one focus. THE LAW OF AREAS - "A line that connects a planet to the sun sweeps out equal areas in the plane of the planet's orbit in equal times, that is, the rate da/dt at which it sweeps out area A is constant. THE LAW OF PERIODS - "The square of the period of any planet is proportional to the cube of the semi major axis of its orbit."
29 Kepler s 1 st law The Law of Orbits "All planets move in elliptical orbits, with the Sun at one focus.
30 Kepler s 2 nd Law The Law of Areas "A line that connects a planet to the sun sweeps out equal areas in the plane of the planet's orbit in equal times, that is, the rate da/dt at which it sweeps out area A is constant. A 1 A 2 A 1 = A 2
31 The planet moves faster near the Sun so the same area is swept out in a given time as at larger distances, where the planet moves more slowly. The green arrow represents the planet's velocity, and the purple arrows represents the force on the planet (the NET force, which is a combination of the centripetal force and the tangential force)
32 Kepler s 3 rd Law The Law of Periods "The square of the period of any planet is proportional to the cube of the semi major axis of its orbit." Gravitational forces are centripetal, thus we can set them equal to each other! Since we are moving in a circle we can substitute the appropriate velocity formula! The expression in the RED circle derived by setting the centripetal force equal to the gravitational force is called ORBITAL SPEED. Using algebra, you can see that everything in the parenthesis is CONSTANT. Thus the proportionality holds true!
33 P. O. D. 6. A satellite is orbiting around the Earth at a radius of 2R from its center. What is the magnitude of the velocity it is traveling at? A) B) GM R GM 2R 2GR C) M D) 9.8 m/s E) G R
34 Kepler s 3 rd Law The Law of Periods "The square of the period of any planet is proportional to the cube of the semi major axis of its orbit." T A T B 2 = r A r B 3 r A Where T B and r B are the period and semi major axis of the earth, which are 1 sidereal year and 1 astronomical unit, the standard. For planets with CIRCULAR orbits, the following version of the formula can also be used: T 2 = 4π2 GM r3
35 P. O. D. 7. Five planets make circular orbits around a star which is much more massive than any of them. The mass and orbital radius of each satellite is given. Which satellite has the longest period? A) Mass: 2M Radius: R B) Mass: M Radius: 2R C) Mass: M Radius: R D) Mass: 2M Radius: R E) Mass: M Radius: 2R
36 P.O.D. 6 A satellite in orbit around the Earth has a period of one hour. An identical satellite is placed in an orbit having a radius which is nine times larger than the first satellite. What is the period of the second satellite? A) hr B) 1/3 hr C) 3 hr D) 9 hr E) 27 hr
37 Kinetic Energy in Orbit Using our ORBITAL SPEED derived from K.T.L and the formula for kinetic energy we can define the kinetic energy of an object in a bit more detail when it is in orbit around a body. The question is WHY? Why do we need a new equation for kinetic energy? Well, the answer is that greatly simplifies the math. If we use regular kinetic energy along with potential, we will need both the orbital velocity AND the orbital radius. In this case, we need only the orbital radius.
38 Total Energy of an orbiting body Notice the lack of velocities in this expression as mentioned in the last slide. So by inspection we see that the kinetic energy function is always positive, the potential is negative and the total energy function is negative. In fact the total energy equation is the negative inverse of the kinetic. The negative is symbolic because it means that the mass m is BOUND to the mass of M and can never escape from it. It is called a BINDING ENERGY.
39 Energy from a graphical perspective As the radius of motion gets larger. The orbiting body s kinetic energy must decrease ( slows down) and its potential energy must increase ( become less negative). By saying become less negative means that we have defined our ZERO position for our potential energy at INFINITY.
40 How do you move into a higher velocity orbit? Question: If we have an orbiting Earth satellite and we want to put it in a higher velocity orbit, how can we use the satellite s thrusters to make the adjustment? a) Fire Backwards b) Fire Forwards 50% 50% Backwards = speed up Forwards = slow down Fire Backwards Fire Forwards
41 How do you move into a higher velocity orbit? 1) If you fire backwards thinking you will speed up the satellite you put it into a larger orbital radius which ultimately SLOWS DOWN the satellite as the KE decreases. 2) By thrusting backwards you are ADDING energy to the system moving the total energy closer to ZERO, this results in a larger radius which also causes the KE to decrease. 3) Fire forwards gently so that you do NEGATIVE WORK. This will cause the satellite to fall into a smaller orbit increasing the KE and increasing the speed. It also makes the potential energy increase negatively because you are moving farther from infinity. As the potential increase the KE again decreases.
42 8. The Earth exerts the necessary centripetal force on an orbiting satellite to keep it moving in a circle at constant speed. Which of the following statements best explains why the speed of the satellite does not change even though there is a net force exerted on it? A) The satellite is in dynamic equilibrium. B) The acceleration on the satellite is zero. C) The centripetal force is in the direction of the velocity of the satellite. D) The centripetal force is equivalent to the reaction force caused from the satellite. E) The centripetal force is perpendicular to the velocity of the satellite.
43 10. A satellite orbits the Earth in at a distance of 1 Earth radius from the surface. Its velocity is v. If the satellite moves and enters a new orbit at 3 Earth radii from the Earth's surface, its new velocity will be A) v 2 B) v 3 C)v 2 D) v 3 E) v 2
