Kepler took Brahe's detailed descriptions and measurements of the motion of the planets in the sky over many years, and derived his 3 laws of Planetary Motion <u><em>based purely on what Brahe saw</em></u>.

A hundred years AFTER Kepler, Newton proposed his <em>Law of Universal Gravitation.</em>

Using his own Law of Universal Gravitation, along with his laws of motion, Newton showed that IF his "laws" were correct, then planets HAVE TO move exactly according to Kepler's laws.  (He had to invent Calculus in order to demonstrate this.)

This was an awesome, powerful confirmation of Kepler's work <u><em>and</em></u> Newton's work.  Boat uvum.

In my Physics courses, I used to be able to take Newton's laws of gravity and motion, fold in some calculus and some geometry, mix until smooth, and derive Kepler's laws of planetary motion.  But that was long ago, in a galaxy far away, and, sadly, ya don't get to use it very often as an Electrical Engineer.  So I imagine it's still true, but I can't prove it now.

A person who weighs 800N on the earth's surface will weigh 200N at what height above the earth
Marina86 [1]

Answer: 6,400 km

Explanation:

The weight of a person is given by:

W=mg

where m is the mass of the person and g is the acceleration due to gravity. While the mass does not depend on the height above the surface, the value of g does, following the formula:

g=\frac{GM}{r^2}

where

G is the gravitational constant

M is the Earth's mass

r is the distance of the person from the Earth's center


The problem says that the person weighs 800 N at the Earth's surface, so when r=R (Earth's radius):

800 N= W=mg=m \frac{GM}{R^2} (1)

Now we want to find the height h above the surface at which the weight of the man is 200 N:

200 N = W' = mg' = m \frac{GM}{(R+h)^2} (2)

If we divide eq.(1) by eq.(2), we get

\frac{800 N}{200 N}=\frac{W}{W'}=\frac{(R+h)^2}{R^2}

4=\frac{(R+h)^2}{R^2}

By solving the equation, we find:

4R^2 = (R+h)^2=R^2+2Rh+h^2\\h^2 +2Rh-3R^2 =0

which has two solutions:

h=-3R --> negative solution, we can ignore it

h=R --> this is our solution

Since the Earth's radius is R=6.4\cdot 10^6 m, the person should be at h=R=6.4\cdot 10^6 m=6400 km above Earth's surface.
