- Kepler's Three Law's were groundbreaking in that they accurately described the motion of the planets around the sun. They dispelled the idea that the orbits were not circular but elliptical.
However, it was not until Newton that we understood why Kepler's Laws work.
Kepler's work was not in a vacuum however, and was the culmination of hundreds of years of studying the stars - from Aristotle's and Ptolemy's geocentric model to Copernicus' geocentric model and the meticulous measurement of the planets by Tycho Brahe
This video provided an introduction to the scientific history and then proceeds to discuss Kepler's three laws

i think my brain just melted out through my ears - I can't fathom how you guys' brains just work like this. I have a huge respect towards all scientists but especially the ones dealing with mathematics . It truly is a talent you have to be born with, to see numbers in such a complex way and understand immediately. It takes me a long time to GET IT. Thank you for this video, it did help a lot!!
Imagine those times no schools, libraries, printing presses etc.. All these discoveries were interdependent.. how they had access to each others discoveries..who documented it?
@algotraderoptionnfutures4885 maybe they used WhatsApp back then
Trust me they are all extremely intelligent, more than me or you, but they work a lot too to become that good. There’s no miracle in science

When you went through 5 lectures and 3 discussions and still have no clue what the three laws are exactly, and a TH-cam video can explain it clearly in less than 20 minutes. You really start questioning our country's education system...
Im glad I was able to hep you
I keep hearing different versions of this, the reason why you find TH-cam videos simpler is most likely because you're simply paying more attention or because you have the ability to pause a video. If you have actually gone through 5 lectures and still didn't understand it, you might just be a dumbass.
The difference is people used to go and seek a great teacher, now children are provided one by the state that teachs a 3yo-3000yo curriculum.
same boat here this video saved so much time and was great to watch
@@PhysicsHigh help* why can't you spell
It took me all night to understand the 3rd Law. Thanks for relating Newton and Kepler's Concepts
We will be reporting abt the 3rd law and now I'm starting to get scared just by seeing ur comment (knowing that I'm bad at physics) lmao
same @@cleyowki
5:37 is when he starts talking about the three laws.
You're welcome!
Thanks X

My love
This is soo cool! I love the interactive way of learning. Thank you thank you! I have watched so many videos and only this one has really made sense to me.
very good explanation.
Wow, excellent video!
Beautiful presentation ! Thank you.
Well done!
very well done compliments
Love your profile pic 😂
Thank you so much, keep up the good work dude ❤
Thanks
Thank you for helping me study how to play ksp
7:34 ah thats why slingshot maneuvers are in closest approach possible
Thank you so much! I had to study Johannes Kepler for a school project and all other videos and websites were really confusing. You did such a good job explaining and simplifying Kepler's three laws. I would love to hear more from you!
Thanks. I have lots of videos on various topics and more to come.
thx for the video
this helped me a lot with my science essay, it helped me more clearly understand the three laws
It really was short and brief.
Me too

Thanks mate!
I know right? Why did he do such a long intro
@@untitiled1092 well, I needed it sooo i can say that it's fine since you don't know who'll be watching this video. Some might find history useful and for some might not.
Wonderfully explained, Sir.
Thank you ❤
So accessible this video content……. we should preserve this
Nice video
thanks sir,i really enjoyed the video
Glad to hear that
Thank you so much sir.
Wow...I didn't know that Uranus has a period of 30,589 days...that is such a long time for it's neighbors to put up with I think.
Excellent
Good day, Sir may I know what application did you use in this video? It would mean a lot if you respond. Thank you!
You’ll find all that info on my website.
Thanks a lot, it's very helpful.
thanks sir.
Thank you
Would you allow me to mirror this on my channel? I'm looking for some solid basic science instruction for my viewers.
Great Job
Blow?
Great explanation
Glad you liked it
Thank you so much....
thank homie this helped with my assignment
Glad it helped
Thankksss
Good video
Great explanations. You are much better than my classroom teacher.
But I suppose Kepler's law of period r^3/t^2=GM/4^2 would only work when the object revolving around a central mass in a circular motion. However, from the video, the eccentricity of mercury is 0.206, which should be large enough for its motion to be considered as elliptical. So my question is can you actually derive a equation that describe such an elliptical motion.
Kepler's third law is actually based on the semi major axis (aka r is the length of the semi major axis) so it applies to mercury was well
To derive what R^3/T^2 equal to, you applied v= 2pi/r which is a formula for circle, and you applied the formula for uniform circular motion F= mv^2/r. Well, then the left hand side of Kepler's third law is for an ellipse, but the right hand side is derived using properties of circles. At least to me, it should not work with ellipse.
How this r for every planet came from bcz the path is eliptical so r is not constant. So how it came from?
If Apoapsis-Periapsis = 0, then Eccentricity = 0.
good explanation skill
boonwalak pathomwongsakul love you dear
I am so glad that I am enrolled in a college physics course that will only ever be of use to me in Kerbal Space Program
I love your video.
Thank you for this, it helped allot with multiple research papers. Keep it up!
How does Kepler’s third law apply to elliptical orbits if it was derived from equations of uniform circular motion?
Actually Kleplers‘s law is derived on
ellipses where “r” is the semi major axis. A circle is simply and an ellipse where the semimajor axis and the semi minor axis are the same size.
Skipped over some of the explanation of the formulas in 3rd law proofing. If you are going to explain it, please do it completely, step by step, without holes. Thanks.
Great video. I really enjoyed learning it. Thanks
Fact: over a 15-year period (of 5495 days) Mars returns facing a given star in this curious sequence of time intervals: 707 + 707 + 707 +707 + 707 +707+ 707 + 546 days. As expounded and illustrated in Chapter 5 of my new TYCHOS book (2nd Edition / Dec 2023), this means that the geoheliocentric model devised by Tycho Brahe is the only possible configuration of our Solar System. This, because the 'odd behavior' of Mars - what with its "short Empiric Sidereal Interval" of only 546 days is - perfectly accounted for in Brahe's model. It is now high time to realize this undeniable fact - and to expose Kepler's fraudulent ways in his vain quest to validate heliocentrism (as already discovered and denounced by Prof. W.H. Donahue - the American translator of Kepler's "Astronomia Nova" - back in 1988).
this is better thnk you man
how dose it go the same speed if it is far away didn't he just say it was slower when its far away by the way I am talking about the 1st law
Of course nobody answers...
Not sure what you are asking. A object in an elliptical orbit will have a variable speed, faster when it’s closer. Kepler describes this but could explain it. It took Newton to explain with Gravitation
Very helpful. Thanks.
Good video. I am the first viewer, from India.
@@pedrovillalobos1995 WHAT??
Most clear explanation!
absolute legend. thanks a bunch mate
I am unable to understand keplers 3rd law
Dont know why???
Its very tuffffffff😥
When can I use R for radius and r for radius, or can it be used whenever I want?
We usually use a lowercase ‘r’.
On Keplers third law with the radius, how do you measure radius of an ellipse since it's constantly changing? Do you take the average radius across a single revolution or does it not matter and can you just take the radius at any point in the ellipse?
I believe its indeed the average
It's the mean/average distance from the Sun i.e. radius.
how did kepler's laws of planetary motion change some of the ideas in the ptolemaic and copernican theories?
This needs a longer response but in essence Ptolemaic model was geocentric the others heliocentric. Copernican model was circular where as Kepler demonstrated it was elliptical.
@@PhysicsHigh Thank you very much, now I got my answer for my homework💕
Thank you for your beautiful explanations.
How is it that Kepler was correct in his calculations despite his belief 18:39 that the earth is the centre of the planetary system when the sun is.
Ramzi
Very well explained
very good explanation skill
What's fascinating about Kepler is that his belief in a God that created a perfect and ordered universe is what spurred him on to create a more accurate model for revolutions. The math is quite something!
very impressive method of instruction
awesome! I refer to this video often in my college astronomy class.
A gem of a channel !
Thanks for that.
wait.. does F= m.V^2 / R comes from the centripetal acceleration multiplied by the mass. but the centripetal forces only imply for an object that is orbiting CIRCULARLY in which explained on the FIRST KEPPLER'S law, planets orbit in an oval shape. shouldnt the equation be un usable if this was the case. Thankyou
You are right in that the orbits are elliptical. But they are very close to circular. Thus means that the centripetal formula is s good approximation although in theory needs to take account of the elliptical path.
Thankyou very much
Beautifully & delightfully explained. Thanks so much!!
excellent
Thanks
Thank you sir it was really helpful
Dang, such an amazing video. Explained everything very well
Does the elliptic orbit nature here corroborates the fact that the earth is not exactly spherical as it appears ??
is that the explaination why the sun always goes big and small all the time?
Is Kepler’s first, second, and third law of planetary motion is true? EXPLAIN.
Yes. Why would you ask?
Keplers laws describe the motion of planets and the amount of data we have on planet positions is overwhelming that can easily verify keplers laws.
buddy thank you for this amazing video but you are wrong. K=T^2/R^3 and not the reciprocal
This is just misdirection to prevent you from discovering the simulation sequence.Hint: Look for the subtle glitches.
Very nicely explained
this helped me so much with school thank you so much
What software and hardware do you use to make your videos?
See my website under FAQ where I go through the equipment I use.
Please explain/illustrate how/why the moon is tidally locked showing Earth only about 59% of its surface.
Spoiler: The moon is flat too.
Isn’t it because of how the moon rotates as it revolves around the earth?
Synchronous rotation? Where it takes just as long to rotate about its axis, as it does to make one revolution.
I’m not sure why it’s like that though. I would assume it’s because of gravity. I’m sure billions of years ago it wasn’t like how it is now
Question: What software do you use to produce these videos?
I use Inspire from Promethian
How can you measure the radius in elipses? wouldn't the radius change in different positions of the planet.
Good question
The actual Keller’s law refers to the half the semi major axis. With a circle it’s the radius with an ellipse it’s half the greater diameter. Since most orbits of planets have an eccentricity of very close to 1, the radius is fine to use.
@@PhysicsHigh alright I get it, thanks a lot dude,
Very well explained, BUT it would have given me more knowlege with no sacrifice to you if you had moved the earth in ONLY the correct direction but not back and forth! every little bit from you adds to my knowledge.
Thank you. Very interesting.
Can someone explain why is R^3/T^2 the same for all the planets even though each planet has a different G?
G is a constant value independent of the mass of any planet
@@PhysicsHigh but sir
www.quora.com/Does-the-gravitational-constant-having-the-same-value-around-the-universe-mean-that-the-gravitational-fields-of-all-planets-etc-are-the-same#:~:text=No%2C%20the%20gravitational%20constant%20being,is%20not%20like%20the%20Earth.
They're saying what I am saying . You are mixing up up G , the gravitational constant, with 'g', the gravitational field strength. And Kepler's Law is about the G , the gravitational constant
@@PhysicsHigh Thank you sir my doubt is cleared
13:45 Why is the velocity taken for a circular motion while it isn't circular but elliptical ?
True, but the case of high school circle a good approximation.
start at 6:00
how do you do powerpoint presenataions like that? the one that allows the earth move
Is "Planetary Law of Motion" same as "Law of Planetary Motion"?
Just asking.
Respect for Ptolemy
I cant understand why v = 2πr/T when squared is equal v² = 4π²r²/T² instead of v² = 2π²r²/T²
Hi it nice video
I have question for you What is ellipse ? in first law of Keplers
Blesssssssssss
How stupid do have to be.... EVERYONE knows that god is not real
When and how did the idea of "squaring" become so important in math?
Look up Emilie Du Châtelet
