The major axis of the elliptical path in which the earth moves around the sun is approximately 186,000,000 miles and the eccentricity of the ellipse is 1/60. Determine the apogee and perigee of the earth.
The position of a planet that a closest to and farthest from the sun are called its perihelion and aphelion respectively. We know that the Earth orbits around the Sun (as one focus) in an elliptical orbit with the perihelion distance of 1.47 x 108 km and the aphelion distance of 1.52 x 108 km. Find the Cartesian equation of the elliptical orbit.
Find a Cartesian equation for the curve and identify it as an ellipse, circle, limAson, parabola, or hyperbola.
