    At (a), the surface is not inclined. When a vehicle moves around a bend or a corner on a flat road, it is moving in circular path. Therefore, it will experience centripetal acceleration and there must be an external force causing centripetal acceleration. As shown in the diagram, the only thing in contact with the car is the road, which is between the tyres of the vehicle and the surface of the road. Therefore, we can know that the frictional force exerted between the tyres and the road directed…

    are applied to the balloon. These forces include both tension and friction. Since there is no structure opposing the gravitational force once it is pulled to the right, the balloon begins to accelerate downwards. The tension (caused by the forward motion of the train) allows the balloon to move in the direction in which the tension is…

    Orbital Analysis We first derive a general solution of a two-body problem subject to the universal gravitational attraction (Newton’s Law of Universal Gravitation), and then consider special cases of interest for our purpose. 1.4.1. Equation of Motion under Newton’s Law of Gravitation Using the coordinates shown in Figure 1.2, Newton’s Law of Gravitation implies that the two bodies of masses M and m, and the radius vectors r ⃗_M and r ⃗_m , respectively, would exert the following forces…

    only perfected the heliocentric model of Copernicus in terms of providing it with a sounder mathematical foundation, and rendering it more able to predict the motion of Mars better than any traditional geocentric model like that of described by Ptolemy in the Almagest, but also challenged the ancient belief in the uniform circular motions of the planets. Kepler’s new model is not only one of the greatest achievement in astronomy, but also advanced our understanding into modern physical concepts…

    who believed that his work was fufilling his Christian duty to attempt to understand the world God created. His beliefs motivated him to relentlessly work to uncover the mysteries surrounding the movements of our solar system. His Laws of Planetary Motion changed the ways we saw the planets. Were it not for Johannes Kepler we would have believed that the sun, planets, and all the stars revolve around the Earth for much longer and even longer to realize that the shape of our planets are eliptical…

    a model of our planetary system, Greek philosopher Aristotle stated that Earth could be found at the center of the universe, giving birth to an idea called "geocentrism" around 300 B.C. This belief consisted of planets orbiting Earth in perfectly circular paths called "epicycles". This worked for a while, but as more and more observations were done, the model started to fall apart, with a multitude of additional corrections changing the model until it was no longer thought to be valid. It should…
