    ✵✵✵✵✵ Kepler's First Law of Motion
    ELLIPTICAL ORBITS (Astronomy)
    With his first law of planetary motion, Kepler rejected circular orbits and showed that an ellipse could better explain the observed motions of Mars. Generalized to all planets, it states that the orbit of a planet follows an ellipse with the Sun at one focus.
    Do you know how to draw an ellipse? We show you a neat trick in this video using a piece of string, a pencil, and a couple of pushpins.

    Appreciate your videos a lot since I have seen so many others about the topic already...
    ...and could still learn something new from yours! Amazing! 5 Stars!
    I noticed that the orbital movements in your videos always show clockwise. So this is more like the view from the south. May I assume that you have chosen a pragmatic simplification because it does not really count from a global perspective anyway?
    Or is it the kind of mistake in productions like those where the earth turns into the wrong direction in the background of a newscast?:-)

    I feel there's a parallel between early astromers' desire to have perfect circular orbits, and today's physicists' desire to have supersymmetry in the subatomic world. In many respects, the 'elegance' or 'beauty' motivated both of these, and hindered breaking it to describe what actually happens.

  • @BobSpar100
    @BobSpar100 5 років тому

    Really nice to the point presentation! I have a question that I actually always wonder about.
    Something for the science gurus.
    Why do planets have circular orbits?
    If you play with the math, a speed slightly too slow and it would become an elliptical orbit.
    The same for a speed slightly too fast.
    So a circular orbit needs a perfect speed.
    But, if a comet comes past us, it sucks on our energy.
    As we burn energy, we changing the mass of the Earth, and that would speed us up a little, conservation of energy.
    Solar winds are pushing us.
    So... if left to chance, the probability of have an elliptical orbit is very high.
    So, why do we maintain a circular orbit, as all those planets close to the Sun also do.
    Something is keeping us circular and the speed perfect... what is that?

    @aeroarama4609 9 років тому

    Hey, maybe this is a stupid question but what did he actually mean in his law with "...with the sun at one of the two foci" , does it mean that all planets go around the sun (in an ellipse) with either the sun on the left F1 or right F2? Because in all the images (2:10 for example) the sun is for every planet at the left foci?

    @robertwhyre5537 5 років тому

    Circular planetary orbits were hypothesized by Plato in his writings on natural philosophy. They heavily influenced scientific thought for the next 2000 years. Ptolemy had to use deferants and and other offsets to squeeze the planets into circular orbits, although he already had contradictory evidence at hand, which he made available in the tables attached to his great works. What lifted Kepler above his contemporaries was that he was perhaps the greatest mathematician of his era. He brought to his analysis of the motion of the planets a level of mathematical knowledge that far exceeded that of his immediate predecessors, Tycho Brahe and Copernicus . From his various publications it appears he went through a difficult and prolonged struggle to discard Plato's influence and develop his laws of planetary motion.

    Q: When a planet moves a around a star, with different velocities at it’s perihelion and it’s aphelion,
    does that mean that time on that planet goes slower or faster,
    because time goes slower when an object moves faster?

    Tycho was also famous for being a rich eccentric who loved wild parties. During one such party, he refused to relieve himself because he doesn't want to stop drinking. He died of a bladder complication several days later. Kepler, as his apprentice, got his hands on those meticulously kept notes before they can be given to Tycho's heir and the rest is history.
    If the outdated primary educators (not the teacher, I meant the old dudes making the decisions up top) can make knowledge as fun as youtube, we'd have a far brighter population.
