What to Focus On
- Ptolemy's planetary model was geocentric.
- Aryabhatta mentioned a heliocentric model.
- Copernicus proposed a definitive heliocentric model.
- Law of orbits is Kepler's first law.
- Law of areas is Kepler's second law.
- Law of periods is Kepler's third law.
- Gravitational force varies as product of masses.
- Gravitational force varies inversely as square of separation.
- The force is attractive.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
Gravity becomes weaker only because the object is far away, so the same formula can be used with the same radius everywhere.
Weightlessness in orbit means gravity is almost zero there.
Linear momentum is conserved in the motion of a planet or satellite around Earth.
Memory Tips
Newton's universal law of gravitation
Kepler's first law of orbits
Kepler's second law of areas
Kepler's third law
