10 Universal Gravitation, Applied: When in space why do you float? i.e. Weightlessness 2 mv MmG = 2 r r MG V= r

11 Universal Gravitation, Applied: When in space why do you float? i.e. Weightlessness

12 Orbits: A Brief Historical Look Arthur C. Clarke Discovered This Orbit

13 Ancient Orbit History: ORBIT from Latin word orbita orbitus = circular; orbis = orb 1800 B.C. Stonehenge - Study of the vernal equinox

14 1500 B.C.: Egyptians and Babylonians Written evidence of stellar observations Solar Calendar of 365 days Time divided into 60 even units

15 350 B.C.: Greek Thoughts Aristotle Said earth is center of the universe Dominated scientific thought for 1800 years Ptolemy Geocentric (Earth centered) theory

16 Start of the Heliocentric Model: 350 B.C Aristarchus of Samos Said Geocentric model was B.S Heliocentric Figured out distance to sun and moon Why didn t objects fly off the spinning Earth? Why didn t the motion of the Earth around the sun leave behind the birds flying in the air?

17 Start of the Heliocentric Model: 1543 A.D. Nicholas Copernicus Said Sun-centered rotations Measurements crude but thinking shifts Didn t release findings until the end of his life

18 Orbit History : 1580 A.D. Tycho Brahe Accurate measurements of planets (Mars) as a function of time Even though telescope had not been invented

19 Orbit History : 1610 A.D. Galileo Galilei Good friends with Copernicus Observations with TELESCOPE reinforced Discovered Venus has phases

20 Orbit History: 1600 A.D. Johannes Kepler Used Tycho s careful Mars observations to smash Aristotle theories Presented 3 laws of planetary motion Basis of understanding of spacecraft motion However, Why was not understood Calculus?

21 Orbit History: Kepler s 3 Laws of Planetary Motion: 3. All planets move in elliptical orbits, sun at one focus

22 Orbit History: Kepler s 3 Laws of Planetary Motion: 3. All planets move in elliptical orbits, sun at one focus

23 Orbit History: Kepler s 3 Laws of Planetary Motion: 2. A line joining any planet to the sun, sweeps out equal areas in equal times

24 Orbit History: Kepler s 3 Laws of Planetary Motion: 2. A line joining any planet to the sun, sweeps out equal areas in equal times

25 Orbit History: Kepler s 3 Laws of Planetary Motion: 2. The square of the period of any planet about the sun is proportional to the cube of the of the planet s mean distance from the sun. Planet P (yr) a (AU) T2 R3 Mercury Venus Earth Mars Jupiter Saturn T =R If you can observe the period of rotation, you can determine the distance

26 Orbit History: 1665 A.D. Isaac Newton At 23, plague while at Cambridge Went to be one with nature He studied gravity Discovered Newton s Laws of Motion 1666, he understood planetary motion Did zip for 20 years until Edmund Halley

27 Newton s Laws: 1st Law... Body at rest stays at rest, a body in motion stay in motion 2nd Law... F=m*a 3rd Law... For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction

28 Newton s Laws: Newton Continued , Principia Published Law of Universal Gravitation (Attraction) m1m 2 G F= 2 r

29 Newton s Laws: Newton Continued , Principia Published Law of Universal Gravitation (Attraction) F= m1m 2G r2 m1m 2 G F= = m1 g 2 r

30 Newton s Laws: Newton Continued , Principia Published Law of Universal Gravitation (Attraction) m2v F= ma = r 2 m1m 2 G F= 2 r

31 Universal Gravitation, Applied: When in space why do you float? i.e. Weightlessness

32 Universal Gravitation, Applied: When in space why do you float? i.e. Weightlessness 2 mv MmG = 2 r r MG V= r

33 Types of Orbits: Orbits are conic sections: Circle Ellipse Parabola Hyperbola From Kepler s Law, the central body is at a focus of the conic section V= 2 MG MG r a

34 Kepler: Kepler s Laws...Orbits described by conic sections Velocity of an orbit described by following equation v= (2 µ ) r For a circle (a=r): µ a v= For a ellipse (a>0): v= For a parabola (a= ): v= µ= G M (µ ) r (2 µ ) r (2 µ ) r µ a

35 Questions: How fast can you throw a snowball? - A baseball? - A shot put? - A Subway sandwich out a moving car? Could you throw any of these in to an orbit? - How fast would it have to be going?

36 Questions: Let s figure it out v = GM R v is velocity G is Universal Gravitational Constant M is mass of planet or satellite R is radius of planet of satellite

37 Atmosphere: How about throwing something into orbit on the moon? golf ball

38 Atmosphere: Let s figure it out v = GM R v is velocity G is Universal Gravitational Constant M is mass of planet or satellite R is radius of planet of satellite G = x 1 0 M M 1 1 ( m 3 kg s2 24 E a r th = x 1 0 = x M oon ) kg R E a r th = m kg R M oon = m

44 Circular Orbit: For a 250 km circular Earth Orbit Orbital Velocity (µ ) v= r ( ) v= ( ) km v =7.7 5 = 1 7,3 4 7 m p h sec Orbital Period P P = c ir c u m f e r e n c e v e lo c ity = 2π r3 µ ( ) = 2π = 5, s e c = m in 3 P P

45 Circular Orbit: For a 500 km circular Earth Orbit Orbital Velocity (µ ) v= r v= ( ) ( ) km v =7.6 1 = 17,028 m p h sec Orbital Period P = 2π r3 µ ( ) 3 P = 2π P = 5, s e c = m in Conclusions???

46 Changing Orbits: How about 250 km to 500 km How would you do it?

47 Changing Orbits: Changing orbits usually involves an elliptical orbit Perigee = close Apogee = far Since orbit is elliptical a > 0, so (2 µ ) µ v= where a = r a (r 1 + r 2 ) 2 (( ) + ( ) ) a = 2 a = 6753 k m

48 Changing Orbits: Here s what you need: 1) Velocity of initial orbit v i = km sec = km sec 2) Velocity of final orbit v f 3) Velocity at perigee (2 µ ) µ = v per v per = v per = a r ( 2 * ) ( ) km sec 4) Velocity at apogee km v apo = sec Then figure out your V s v1 = v per vi v2 = v f vapo

49 Changing Orbits: Therefore: V1 is to start transfer v1 = v p er vi v1 = km v1 =.0 8 sec V2 is to circularize orbit v2 = v f vapo v2 = v2 =.07 km sec Time to do transfer is P = 2π a3 *.5 µ ( )3 * P = 2, s e c = 4 6 m in P = 2π v1 v2

50 How well do you understand Hohmann Transfers? 1 to 2? 2 to 3? 3 to 1? 1 to 3? 3 2 1

51 Changing Orbits: Also something called Fast Transfer It is more direct and quicker However it takes more fuel V1 and V2 are much bigger

52

53 From Earth Orbit to the Moon: Same as changing orbits but... - At apogee you don t have empty space - Instead, you have a large and massive object Gravity from this object can act as a V against your spacecraft When going to the Moon the following could happen: 1) Gravity will cause your spacecraft to crash into the surface 2) Gravity will cause your spacecraft to zip off into space for a long time

68 Earth to Beyond: Say you are in a 250 km orbit... km Orbital Velocity: vi = 7.75 sec Velocity on parabolic (a= ) escape trajectory: v= (2 µ ) v esc = r v esc V needed: (2 * ) ( ) km = sec v esc = km sec V will not put you in a orbit, you will escape the Earth s gravity never to come back
