Wed (3/30 )—

• HO 7.4 and work on it for the hour.  We discussed the origins of Newton’s Universal Law of Gravitation — Tycho Brahe (1546 – 1601) was the greatest naked eye astronomer.  He cataloged 777 stars.  Johannes Kepler (1571-1630) took “stole” his data and developed Kepler’s 3 Laws.  Newton used the data and other sources to develop his Universal Gravitation Equation. Which NASA still uses today . . . so Thank You Tycho!
• Worked on 7.4.5 and found that the gravitational acceleration on the astronauts is 8.8m/s/s.  Not that different from here on earth so . . . . why do they float?
• Handed out 7.5 — It is more of FBD using rulers.  It is due MONDAY for a CFP.
