Description: Derives the law of universal gravitation by imagining a solar system of one star and one planet. The kinematics and dynamics of planetary motion are demonstrated with models. Satellite orbits are displayed using a digital computer. , Explains the law of universal gravitation by imagining a solar system of one star and one planet. Professors Patterson Hume and Donald Ivey as inhabitants of planet X describe the process by which they derived the law in their solar system. Demonstrates the kinematics and dynamics of planetary motion using a large turntable as a model of a solar system. Displays satellite orbits as figured by a digital computer, Explains the law of universal gravitation by imagining a solar system of one star and one planet.
