    Kepler's Law of Planetary Motion

    Uploaded by

    ALJON EMPERADO
    The document discusses planetary motion and different models that were proposed throughout history. It explains that Ptolemy first introduced the geocentric Ptolemaic system, while Copernicus later proposed the heliocentric Copernican system where the Earth and planets revolve around the sun. However, the Copernican system was rejected by the church. The document also discusses Tycho Brahe's Tychonic system, which was intermediate between the Ptolemaic and Copernican systems, with Earth at the center but the sun and moon revolving around it while the other planets revolve around the sun. It concludes by stating that the module will cover Kepler's laws of planetary motion and how they relate to Newton's law of gravitation and centripetal

    Ptolemy (151-127 B.C.E.) developed the
    Ptolemaic system for describing the
    motion of the planets and the sun. The
    system is geocentric, that is, the earth is
    at the center of the universe.
    In 1543, Nicholas Copernicus (1473–1543) proposed a
    heliocentric system for the universe in which Earth and
    all of the other planets revolved around the Sun.
    However, the Copernican system was rejected by the
    clergy because the religious belief system at the time
    placed humans and Earth at the center of a physically
    perfect universe. You probably read about Galileo
    Galilei (1564–1642) put on trial for supporting the
    Copernican system.
    Have you ever heard of the Tychonic system? A
    famous Danish nobleman and astronomer,
    Tycho Brahe (1546–1601), proposed a system,
    that was intermediate between the Ptolemaic
    and Copernican systems. In Brahe’s system,
    Earth is still and is the center of the universe;
    the Sun and Moon revolve around Earth, but the
    other planets revolve around the Sun.
    Brahe’s system captured the interest of many
    scientists, but never assumed the importance
    of either the Ptolemaic or Copernican systems.
    Nevertheless, Tycho Brahe contributed an
    extensive amount of information about
    astronomy. In this module, we will learn about
    Kepler’s laws of planetary motion and how it
    relates to Newton’s law of gravitation and
    centripetal acceleration.
    Thank you for
    listening 
