  11. Needed Better Data Went to Work for Tycho Brahe 1600 Tycho Gave Only Tiny Bits of Data Tycho Dying Recommended Kepler as Royal Mathematician Tycho Died 1601 Dispute with Brahe Family Kepler Kept Data 1604 Supernova Rudolphine Tables 1627 by Tycho Brahe and Johannes Kepler 3 Laws of Planetary Motion Kepler

  12. 1) Planets orbit in ellipses with the sun at one focus. What sets this apart from previous models?

  13. 1) Planets orbit in ellipses with the sun at one focus. Circles are a possibility, but not required.

  14. The distance from any planet to the sun plus the distance from the planet to the other focus is a constant.

  15. Perihelion Closest to Sun Aphelion Farthest from Sun

  16. Minor Axis

  17. Major Axis

  18. SemiMajor Axis

  19. Semimajor Axis/Astronomical Unit The average distance from a planet to the sun is equal to the semimajor axis of the planet. The Astronomical Unit is a distance measurement defined as the semimajor axis of Earth. The distance from the sun to the earth is exactly 1AU. We use a for semimajor axis.

  20. ¤ ¤ ¤ Eccentricity e=0.8 e=0.4 e=0.1

  21. 2) The line connecting the planet and the sun sweeps out equal areas in equal time.

  22. Consequences of Kepler’s Second Law Speed is not constant. Speed Constantly Changing Fastest at Perihelion Slowest at Aphelion Acceleration Aphelion to Perihelion Deceleration Perihelion to Aphelion

  23. 2) The line connecting the planet and the sun sweeps out equal areas in equal time.
