    Anderson Sir has explained it very well.
    I am providing 2 alternative explanation for those who are not convinced.
    First is the Big-bang version: Starting from unity (at a time when only energy was present) the universe started expanding rapidly i.e in a direction we will call positive. This expansion can be seen as positive kinetic energy. But as gravitational force emerged, it started opposing this expansion and as particles started forming it started pulling them together. This is in a direction opp to the initial K.E. So, if K.E is positive then the gravitational energy should be negative
    Second version: From conservation of energy principle
    Consider a closed system of Earth and a mass M. Assume no other forces other than the all pervasive gravitational force acts between the. Now lift the mass to a significant height above the surface of earth (consider R to be the distance between the center of the 2 masses). It only has potential energy since its not moving. Assume the energy to be positive (just 4 now). Now let go off the mass. It falls picking up speed. Its kinetic energy increases. But this is normal positive energy. The rock would hurt you if it hit your head. Since the system is isolated the total energy should not change. So, if the kinetic energy gets more positive the gravitational energy should get more negative to keep the total unchanged. But with R in the denominator decreasing (GMm/R), the P.E will also increase. This will be a violation of the law of conservation of energy and hence ........

      You can get mv square from second eqn and plug it back in the first.
      Or u can multiply by half so u get half mv square
      Either way its the same thing

    Great lecture but this might be something completely unrelated it's more of a group discussion. I am trying to understand at this moment the virtual energy that we manifest with vibration frequency. Over the past 20 or so years a change that has been occurring I know it's called waking up, but we can see orbiting energy around our bodies. Lately, it's becoming way more visible with the eyes open and just in lower light levels not only from the corner of the eyes but looking directly at it. How many of you have seen this. I know the concept is real and on the metaphysics way of thinking, how many of you have adjusted your eyes to be able to detect multidimensional energy?... This is kinda interesting and yes no I am not on any drugs I am completely against that, I don't even drink it's always been with me. As I see it everything is a planet in a way all things have their own gravitational pull but it's not as big as things with larger mass. I just guess I have blown my mind on that I just thought I would share and see if others can see it too. The description as follows is blue-white wire framed energy with little clouds like objects that are in the same pattern as the symbol of Atomic energy. It changed from the corner of the eyes to a direct line of sight.

    how is there zero G inside the ISS but gravity holds it in orbit while it travels 17000mph which is velocity?

    • @sup2day
      @sup2day 2 роки тому

      An orbit is a constant state of falling but with enough horizontal velocity to miss the Earth. Within the ISS you are falling at the same rate as the ISS and also moving horizontal to the Earth at the same velocity. In essence, you and the ISS are both falling together so there is no perception of gravity or acceleration. It's no different than if you were inside a falling elevator. Since you are both falling together both you and the elevator would be weightless, until you hit the Earth that is.

  • @ptyptypty3

    I thought I heard that the KE = (1/2) PE for Circular Orbits ONLY... but not so for Elliptical Orbits... is that TRUE?... I guess in Either case the Eo = Ef .... or PEo. +KEo = PEf +KEf...

    • @sup2day
      @sup2day 2 роки тому

      True. In an elliptical orbit, kinetic energy (horizontal velocity) is highest at closest approach and lowest at furthest away. Potential energy (distance) is lowest at closest approach and highest at furthest away. In summation (by integrating around the entire orbit), these should balance out just the same as for a circular orbit of the same orbital period.

      Think of it as a binding energy. The object in orbit is "bound" to the planet. The only way to remove it is to add energy.

    "Negative Energy", Weird.
    Obviously it Needs Positive Energy to Rotate in it's Orbit?.
    Obviously it Needs Gravity to Remain in Orbit?.
    Unless it is Decelerating, but that's Negative Velocity?.
    Therefore Must be a Maths Necessity?.

    • @sup2day
      @sup2day 2 роки тому

      By convention, the potential energy of an object in a gravitational well is negative. This represents its potential to fall deeper into the well. It's kinetic energy is positive. This represents its capacity to escape the well. When kinetic energy plus potential energy equals zero, then we have achieved what is called "escape velocity." This means the object will fly off to infinity where it will reach zero velocity. So, when KE + PE < 0 we have an orbit. When KE + PE = 0 we have escape velocity, and when KE + PE > 0 we have more than escape velocity.

      Obviously the Earths Satellites are Operating in Multiple Gravity Wells, The Sun, The Earth, The Moon, The Solar System, The Galaxy, The Universe....., but in this example Earth as the Strongest.
      However Theoretically Equilibrium must be Possible and It Should Orbit in Equilibrium ?.
      Therefore a Quality Control System combined with a Solar Motion Drive on the Satellite should be able to Keep it in Equilibrium.
      Therefore again Maybe the Earths GPS Satellites do have Equilibrium Control Systems for Accuracy.
