  2. Examples of the Effects of Gravity: Tides Tides at the Bay of Fundy Effect of the Moon on Earth

  3. Gravity ( )  Tidal Forces: • == Distortion of an object by the gravitational pull of another object. • -- nearby (e.g. Earth & Moon) • OR • - very massive (e.g. Earth & Sun)

  4. Tidal Force Examples: Asteroid Belt –tidal force of Jupiter prevented formation of planet between Mars & Jupiter.

  5. Tidal Force Examples: The tidal force of Jupiter (and Europa) cause • - deformation of Io’s interior • -> heat •  volcanism

  6. Split apart Comet Shoemaker-Levy

  7. q Saturn raises tides on its moons. Gravity  orbits of material in rings.

  8. Peculiar Galaxies

  9. Tidal Tail

  10. Tides • Make note of your prediction. • There is a difference in the gravitational force on each side of an object. Splitting the object into 3 parts, which is going to feel the most force? • The red (closest) ball? • The blue (middle) ball? • The yellow (furthest) ball?

  11. Tides • Make note of your prediction. • Which ball moves the least? • The red (closest) ball? • The blue (middle) ball? • The yellow (furthest) ball?

  12. Tides: • Movie about motion of the balls. • Note perspective from someone sitting on centre ball

  13. Tides • Difference in on each side of an object.

  14. Tides • On centre ball: appears other 2 balls have moved in opposite directions. These 2 opposing forces == tidal forces. • Tidal forces: cause distortion of an object by pull of another object. • Can occur when • Objects close (e.g. Earth & Moon) • 1 object is very massive (e.g. Jupiter & Io; Sun & Earth.)

  15. Tides • Moon pulls on Earth & tides effect water more than land. • Make a prediction about how Earth’s ocean is distributed due to moon.

  16. Tides • Note 2 tidal bulges at one time!

  17. Apply what we know: • If the Earth had no Moon, then the tides would occur twice a day but would not be as strong. (Think of the objects in the Solar System.)

  18. Tidal Locking: Tidal Drag Why does the moon always show the same face to us? Synchronous Orbit: P == Period

  19. What happens to Earth Tidal Locking: Tidal Drag Misalignment due to friction between ocean & crust  crust drags ocean Moon pulls back on tidal bulge  Earth’s spin slows down. 100’s of billions of yrs  tidal locking

  20. Tidal Locking: Tidal Drag Moon’s tidal bulge formed when moon solidified & Earth’s tidal pull on moon’s bulge is larger  tidal locking faster for moon. P == Period

  21. Tidal Locking: • Summary – Examples: Tidal forces cause 1) Synchronous Orbits

  22. 2) Fragmenting Comets

  23. 3) Structures in Interacting Galaxies Note: there is structure on each side of an individual galaxy – the bridge and the tail.

  24. 2.7 Newton’s Laws Gravity Kepler’s Laws of Planetary Motion from Newton’s perspective.

  25. Description of Ellipse

  26. Objects orbit a common centre of mass. Centre of mass == average position of all matter making up the 2 bodies. Equal mass 1 object more massive 1 object very massive Notice “wobble” of sun!  large planets around stars are easier to detect because they cause star to “wobble”.

  27. Kepler’s 1st Law : Kepler I • Orbit of a planet around the sun is an ellipse with the center of mass of the planet-sun system at one focus • Note: r = radius of circle = distance. O.k. since r == average distance, which equals semi-major axis a

  28. Kepler II An imaginary line connecting the sun to any planet sweeps out equal areas of an ellipse in equal intervals of time.

  29. Area of A, B, and C are the same. • Note Arc of A, Arc of C and Arc of B • v = distance/time and time remains constant. Therefore planet travels a different speeds when at different distances from the sun.

  30. Kepler III The square of the planet’s orbital period (P) is proportional to the cube of its semi-major axis (a) divided by the combined mass in the system (Mtotal) Solar mass = 99.85% of Mtotal Note proportionality. If distance from sun increases so does time to go around sun. Relationship is NOT 1-to-1. Note P in earth years A in AU M in solar masses

  31. Example: Planet A and Planet B. Distance between star and B is twice that of A. Long does it take for B to orbit compared to A?

  32. Example: Planet A and Planet B. Distance between star and B is twice that of A. Long does it take for B to orbit compared to A?

  33. Compare planets’ velocities  Keplerian Rotation Curve And since • Works for: • Earth’s satellites • Jupiter’s moons • planets

  34. Plot Velocity Equation for planets the Solar System: a v 1 1 25 1/5 36 1/6 64 1/8 100 1/10 Keperlian motion  Keplerian rotation curve. Important when we study Dark Matter.

  35. Derive v using Newton’s Laws Notice how m of smaller object cancels out. So hammer and feather have same acceleration! For Earth’s gravity: accel = g

  36. Derive v using Newton’s Laws Kepler’s v is empirical with no reason for formula. Newton’s version provides reason – Forces in balance for an object to be in orbit. Since r = semi-major axes “a” and G & M are constant:

  37. v to little, fall back • v enough, go into orbit • v to much, unbound ==escape Escape Velocity

  38. Let’s weigh the sun! • Re-arrange the velocity equation and substitute. • Exercise – weigh the Earth using the moon.(Look relevant values in textbook.)

  39. Weighing the sun

  40. Weighing the sun Many ways to calculate co-efficients. How does this compare with the Earth’s mass? What else can we “weigh” with this equation?
