According to Keplers first law, planets move in elliptical orbits. Why is that considered accelerated motion? According to Newton, what is the force causing that acceleration?
The standard acceleration (at sea level and 45 ° latitude) due to gravity is 9.80665 m/s². What is the force needed to hold a mass of 2 kg at rest in this gravitational field? How much mass can a force of 1N support?
Newton’s law of universal gravitation tells us that the force exerted by oneparticle on another isF = Gm1m2r2 ,where the universal gravitational constant G is found experimentally to beG = 6.673 ×10−11 N m2/kg2.The mass of each particle is m1 and m2, respectively, and r is the distancebetween the two particles. Assume that the mass of the earth is approximately6 ×1024 kg, and the mass of the moon is approximately 7.4 ×1022 kg. We knowthat the earth and the moon are not always the same distance apart. UseNewton’s law of universal gravitation to find the force exerted by the moon onthe earth for ten distances between 3.8 ×108 m and 4.0 ×108 m.

Modeled after the two satellites problem (slide 12 in Lecture13, Universal gravity), imagine now if the period of the satellite is exact 47.95 hours, the earth mass is 5.98 x 1024 kg, and the radius of the earth is 3958.8 miles, what is the distance of the satellite from the surface of the earth in MILES? Use G=6.67x 10 -11 Nm2/kg2. Your answer for this problem is some large number on the order of 105 to 106. Just put in the raw number as your answer. For example, 34567.11.
