Circular orbit — For other meanings of the term orbit , see orbit (disambiguation) A circular orbit is the orbit at a fixed distance around any point by an object rotating around a fixed axis. Below we consider a circular orbit in astrodynamics or celestial… … Wikipedia
Circular economy — The circular economy is a generic term for an industrial economy that is, by design or intention, restorative and in which materials flows are of two types, biological nutrients, designed to reenter the biosphere safely, and technical nutrients,… … Wikipedia
Newton's theorem of revolving orbits — Figure 1: An attractive force F(r) causes the blue planet to move on the cyan circle. The green planet moves three times faster and thus requires a stronger centripetal force, which is supplied by adding an attractive inverse cube force. The … Wikipedia
List of orbits — The following is a list of types of orbits:Centric classifications* Galactocentric orbit: An orbit about the center of a galaxy. Earth s sun follows this type of orbit about the galactic center of the Milky Way. * Heliocentric orbit: An orbit… … Wikipedia
Minor Planet Circular — The Minor Planet Circulars (MPCs) is a scientific journal that is generally published on the date of each full moon by the Minor Planet Center. The Circulars contain astrometric observations, orbits and ephemerides of minor planets, comets and… … Wikipedia
Minor Planet Electronic Circular — The Minor Planet Electronic Circulars (MPECs) are published by the Minor Planet Center. They generally contain positional observations and orbits of unusual minor planets and all comets. Monthly lists of observable unusual objects, observable… … Wikipedia
Orbital mechanics — A satellite orbiting the earth has a tangential velocity and an inward acceleration. Orbital mechanics or astrodynamics is the application of ballistics and celestial mechanics to the practical problems concerning the motion of rockets and other… … Wikipedia
Kepler problem in general relativity — The Kepler problem in general relativity involves solving for the motion of two spherical bodies interacting with one another by gravitation, as described by the theory of general relativity.Typically, and in this article, one body is assumed to… … Wikipedia
Newtonian motivations for general relativity — Some of the basic concepts of General Relativity can be outlined outside the relativistic domain. In particular, the idea that mass/energy generates curvature in space and that curvature affects the motion of masses can be illustrated in a… … Wikipedia
