No force is necessary to cause orbital motion.
The planets orbit the sun at a special mean orbital
radius L to conserve total energy. The modified
first law of thermodynamics , which states that the
total energy of the universe is a constant, is the
fundamental equation of the universe. Any mass
with orbital motion has kinetic and potential
energies which depend on its velocity and mean
orbital radius L from the center of the mass of
the rest of the effective universe. The mass travels at
this orbital radius because this is the only
orbital radius where no force or change of total
energy is necessary to maintain the orbit.The sum
of its kinetic and potential energies is a constant
and the magnitudes of kinetic and potential energies are nearly equal.
m (2 pi L)^2 / t^2 + G m(M-m) /L = A CONSTANT.
(if no charges are present)
+ Delta m(2 pi L)^2/T^2 = - Delta Gm(M-m)/L
What's so important about this modified first law of thermodynamics?
Kinetic energy m (2 pi L)^2 / t^2 of a mass m is orbital motion
relative to the rest of the effective universe (M-m) and potential
energy G(M-m) m / L, where L is the mean orbital radius, are nearly
equal at equilibrium, where no energy change occurs and the total
energy is constant. At equilibrium, any change of kinetic energy must
be accompanied by an equal and opposite, sign, change of potential
energy.
The universe has been found to be expanding
at an accelerating rate. The potential energy of the
universe is continually decreasing and the kinetic
energy is continually increasing. Again, to conserve
the total energy relative to the rest of the universe.
This is why the modified first law is so important. The conservation
of total energy must be maintained
relative to the rest of the expanding universe. Kinetic
and potential energies must be computed relative to
the rest of the expanding universe.
This modified first law leads to the conclusion that
the force of gravity and the velocity of light are
misleading illusions.
The definition of Kinetic and Potential Energies
is most important to an understanding that these
energies are relative to the rest of the effective
universe, not just relative to any other mass.
Kinetic energy is mass m times the
square of the velocity relative to the rest of the
effective universe. For example the kinetic energy
of the earth is effectively relative to the sun plus
the rest of the planets of the solar systen.
Potential energy is the product
of the mass m times the mass of the rest of the
effective universe M-m divided by the distance L
between their effective centers of mass.
M is the mass of the entire effective universe.
t is the orbital time for one complete revolution.
G is the gravitational constant.
Once this is clearly understood, the modified
First Law of Thermodynamics becomes the
Fundamental Equatiion of the Universe.
This equation ,then, defines the photon and the
rest of the universe.
The Thomas R. Young two slit diffraction pattern,
the complete logic of quantum mechanics, the
true nature of gravitation, the fact that light does
not have a mass or a velocity, all become quite
obvious. This is a simple solution to so many of
the problems that baffled scientists for hundreds
of years.
We remember that Sir Isaac Newton proposed
the force of gravity F_g = k m_1 m_2 / L^2.
Scientists have known that action at a distance
without the transfer of energy was not possible.
A force of gravity would not be possible without
the transfer of energy. The amount of energy
required to cause the so called force of gravity
to make the planets travel in any orbit other than
their equilibrium orbits about the sun would be tremendous and is not
available.
Another explanation is necessary.
Einstein and other scientists have
assumed that masses change the shape of
space time. These explanations have their
problems.
No problems exist if the modified first law
of thermodynamice is used.This is the
fundamental equation of the universe.
