Gravitational Force And Orbital Mechanics Calculator
Gravitational Force And Orbital Mechanics: a planned Super Calculator tool. Stub page: the tool, its formula and a worked example are not published yet.
Gravitational Force And Orbital Mechanics Calculator is a planned calculator in the science section of Super Calculator, covering physics: mechanics.
What this calculator will compute
Inputs: masses, separation or orbital radius, central body selection and altitude.
Outputs: gravitational force, orbital velocity, escape velocity, orbital period, surface gravity and geostationary altitude.
Formula, recorded as scope and not yet verified against a primary source: F = G m1 m2 / r^2 with G = 6.67430 times 10^-11 m^3 kg^-1 s^-2 (CODATA 2018). Circular orbital velocity v = sqrt(GM/r); escape velocity sqrt(2GM/r); orbital period from Kepler’s third law T = 2 pi sqrt(r^3/(GM)).
