Orbits - Why Satellites Follow Curved Trajectories
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 31 дек 2018
- This LabRat video outlines two physical descriptions as to why orbiting objects follow a curved trajectory around the earth. One description deals with horizontal and vertical distance travelled over a time period and the other deals with the balance of the gravitational force and the "centrifugal" force due to the speed of the orbiting object. This video is intended for high school teachers and students. More information on this topic can be found at www.labratscientific.com.
Sir, your video topics are exactly what I'm looking for, and you present the material in a perfectly concise manner. Please never stop making videos.
Great content. Thank you. Your channel deserves way more subscribers.
In one video, you answered so many questions I had. Thank you very much for the great job you are doing!
Really informative video, would like to see some more metric system units tho
Yep, I bounce between English and SI units when I create the videos. I'm going to lean more towards SI units in the future... Unfortunately engineers in the US tend to deal with English units - and I'm part of that "old school". It can be a hard habit to break - after all, I weigh myself in Pounds not Newtons (or Kilograms)... Thanks for the suggestion.
@@labratscientific1127 I understand that, its definitely something I would struggle with as well.
@@labratscientific1127 not sure why everyone wants to jump on board with the metric system. There are the countries that use the metic system and then there is THE country that has walked on the moon. I'm sure there are arguments in both directions
