I SCREWED UP yesterday’s warmup! So here is the correction (Kudos to Mark Mccolloh for pointing this out) . PLEASE CORRECT THIS ON YESTERDAY’S WARM UP! When a rock is thrown up, at the apogee it’s net velocity is zero but its net force is the weight of the rock. Gravity is always interacting with the rock so the force on it is constant.

First a general definition of mass: it is the number of particles in an object. Since a force affects an entire object , we must assume that every particle of that object has to be affected. Second, remember that in the First law we discussed an unbalanced force (the “outside” force). For there to be an outside force you need to speed an object up, slow it down or change its direction.
So Newton’s Second Law tells that a force affects every particle of an object – every particle’s speed and/or direction is being affected. Mathematically if I want to know how much a crate of apples (forgive the Newtonian pun) costs, I need to know how many apples (particles) and how much each apple costs (acceleration) : Cost of the crate of apples (Force) is equal to the # of apples times the cost of each. F = (mass) (acceleration) Tomorrow’s episode: Newtons exciting Third Law
Newton’s exciting Third Law – If two objects (particles, elephants, ants or planets, galaxies) touch (pairs) they both feel the touch (equal). The nerves go back to their own brains means the touch goes BACK to them (opposite). Generally if you can’t feel the force, then there is no force! SIDE NOTE: There are only a few forces ( such as gravity and magnetism) that do not have to touch – these are called non-contact forces – forces over a distance) SO all forces come in pairs that arre opposite and equal.
Period 1,3-6 A spaceship is orbiting a small asteroid at 1,000 km. The spaceship has a mass that is 1/10 that of asteroid. Another spaceship, with identical mass docks with the first spaceship. The two ships, while docked, back off to 3000 km from the asteroid. How much has the gravitational effect changed between the ships and the asteroid? Do you think that the two spaceships have an effect on the asteroid? Period 2 Draw an ellipse, label aphelion & perihelion. Indicate kinetic energy & potential energy at its greatest. Indicate where it becomes more than half KE.
WARM UP: 1,3-6: You have two 10 kg lead spheres that are 5 meters apart. What is the factor of gravity when you quadruple the mass of one sphere and triple the distance ? What were Galileo’s contributions to astronomy? How many accelerators does your car have? What are they? What was Galileo’s problem with Aristotelian view of the world?
Draw an ellipse, label aphelion & perihelion. Indicate kinetic energy & potential energy at its greatest. Indicate where it becomes more than half KE. There is three planet solar system (planet Beta, Delta and Gamma, planets orbiting a 2 solar mass star. Planet Gamma is 6 AU, Planet Delta is 3 AU and the last planet’s distance (Beta) is unknown but its orbital period is 0.5 Earth years long. What is planet G and D’s period, what is Planet B’s distance for its parent star? If the sun tripled its mass how would it change the periods and/or distances. BTW why is there no Alpha Planet?
