  • Here we discuss escape velocity of a spacecraft leaving the gravitational field of another planet. Every planet has an orbital speed and and an escape speed. All orbits are actually elliptical in shape. If we continue to add energy to an orbiting object, the ellipse will get larger and larger and eventually the shape will change from an ellipse to a parabola. all orbital shapes are actually conic sections. We discuss what conic sections are and how orbits work.

    This guy is the first person I have " met" who can explain physics. He doesn't have only the knowledge but also the didactic to pass the information on with great clarification. This is what means to be a professor/ teacher. Many can have the knowledge but if they don't know how to explain the subject; the title of being a teacher doesn't make them a teacher.

    This guy is fantastic!
    He gets right into things. He doesn't waste time. There's no pointless fluff. He doesn't try to be funny or cute or make the videos all about himself, which so many TH-camr's can't resist doing.
    He just lays out the most necessary information in a very organized manner that's easy to follow. In fact, watching him draw on a board is even more effective than cutting away to fancy animations or graphics with voiceover. Something about uninterrupted video makes you really stay focused.
    I just found this guy's channel.
    I'll be watching many more.

    Great introduction to a subject that has always been of great interest to me: orbital mechanics. When rendezvous of spacecraft became a thing during the Gemini program, I was perplexed by the apparent enigma of accelerating a spacecraft into a higher orbit, only to then have a lower orbital speed. That provoked my interest at that point!

    • @MathAndScience
      @MathAndScience  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I think I might do a video on that topic one day, explaining why. But since you are interested think of this. You push a child on a swing. There is a low point when they travel fastest. There is a high point when they travel slowest as they turn around. This is analogous to the low point and high point of an elliptical orbit. If the child comes down and at the bottom where they are moving fast you PUSH them, you have added energy to that system instantaneously at that point. What happens is that they will climb higher at the next turn around point. Your push at the bottom affected the shape of the orbit at the highest point.

    At about 2min33s " delay the impact" implies the travel time would be extended.

    I'm missing the proof that the escape speed actually exists. From the mountain example, one could argue that the air friction is inversely proportional to the speed. So, the faster the bullet, the higher the drag. For all that matters, there could exist something like the terminal velocity of a failing object.
    I know that escape velocity exists, at least for the Earth and the Moon, but I fail to get the proper explanation in this video. Here, the existence of such velocity is taken for granted.

      Yes it will just fall down in an arc towards the planet. That is now orbiting spacecraft Re-enter. They just slow down a bit by firing thrusters in the direction if travel (engines facing forward), then they arc down to the atmosphere and gravity pulls them in.

    I put 2 steel balls 1 kg each, with their skins 1 mm apart, on a horizontal, thick glass plate. There's no attraction at all. Is it because Newton's concept of mass attracting another separate mass doesn't exist?

    • @mathization
      @mathization ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I have a thought on your fair question. Gravity is sometimes noted as a weak force as compared to a magnetic or electric force. Mass has to be huge to have a noticable amount of gravity. The balls are attracting each other, but the gravitational force isn't enough to overcome the friction caused by the weight of the balls on the glass.

    • @willoughbykrenzteinburg
      @willoughbykrenzteinburg ปีที่แล้ว

      The gravitational force between two steel balls - 1 kg each - sitting 1 mm apart is :
      0.000066743 Newtons.
      The friction they each experience greatly exceeds that. They aren't coming together......sorry to burst your bubble....
      If you did this in free space with absolutely zero friction, it would take a tad bit over 2 hours for the two 1 kg balls to collide from 1 mm apart. And this again - ignores ALL friction or other forces. If the balls are sitting on glass - - the friction alone will overcome the tiny gravitational force between them.
      The problem people like you have is not understanding the vast difference between YOUR mass and the mass of the EARTH. It's not two 1 kg balls. It's you - - - average person - - - with a mass of about 70 kg - - - and the mass of the Earth - - - at about 5.97*10^24 kg....or... 5,970,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 kg. There's kind of a difference there......
      I looked at my physics book.....20 years ago. Did you look at yours? Can you even explain how I arrived at the 0.000066743 figure? I doubt it. You don't know what the fuck you're talking about.

    • @rockwithyou2006
      @rockwithyou2006 ปีที่แล้ว

      not true. The two steel balls of 1KG are far apart (yes 1 mm is very far) for them to pull each other enough to escape the rolling friction between the balls and the glass plate. But the 1Kg ball also has a gravitational pull which is very very feeble due to its low mass.
