In celestial mechanics, the true anomaly is an angular parameter that defines the position of a body moving along a Keplerian orbit. It is the angle between the direction of periapsis and the current position of the body, as seen from the main focus of the ellipse (the point around which the object orbits). The true anomaly is usually denoted by the Greek letters ν or θ, or the Roman letter f. The true anomaly is one of three angular parameters ("anomalies") that define a position along an orbit; the other two being the eccentric anomaly and the mean anomaly.

Q. For a Keplerian orbit with a period of 205 minutes, eccentricity of 0.40, and true anomaly of 60 degrees, calculate the time since passage of perigee. Asked by Omar - Mon Jan 12 05:35:25 2009 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments A. Use Kepler's equation for this problem (or rather, a form of it, but I'll get to that...): M = sqrt[ mu / ( a ^ 3 ) ] ( t_f - T ) = E - e*sin(E) M = Mean anomaly E = Eccentric anomaly T = time period mu = mu of body being orbited...In this case earth. An earth orbit is indicated by the word "perigee", the "gee" part of the word is used only for an earth-centric orbit. For example "apogee" is the apoapsis of an earth orbit. So use mu = mu_earth = approximately 3.986 * 10^5 km^3 / s^2 Since you just want to get the time since passage through periapsis, and it's clear that the object hasn't passed through periapsis again at a true anomaly of only 60 degrees, use the following form of the equation below.

I eat my poop on a daily basis and drink my urine every day too. Recently, a friend told me that this was not normal, yet it has been a family custom for centuries. Is it true that this practice is abnormal? Or is it my friend who is the anomaly (as I think is the case)? Asked by Silly Goose - Fri Jul 31 01:01:27 2009 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments A.

Q. The foundation of 'modern' economics is subjectivity. The foundation of modern cosmology is relativity. In the 'relative' universe, nothing is 'universal', space and time are elastic and always occur in unique qualities that always apply only to you based on your individual interpretive perspective - The universe emerges from nothing for no reason, commences then concludes, occurs once and never occurs again. In modern economics, everything is intrinsically worthless, 'value' is something you individually determine by unique criteria based on your individual interpretive perspective and it never means anything to anyone but you. The common theme here is self-centric interpretive perspective . When we embrace these sophisticated modern … [cont.] Asked by - nokilleye - - Wed Mar 4 10:01:16 2009 - - 4 Answers - 1 Comments A. To the Solipsist, there could be no contention of conspiracy or not because nothing truly exists outside the self! Money is a medium of exchange of goods and services, the value of which depends upon what one receives for what they do/produce and what they feel they will part with to obtain something else. Fiat money exists because government says so. Barter is what we have when there is no medium. Try to live without barter, money or fiat money! That will surely make one aware that there is existence beyond the self. (Or you can use my first test in metaphysics: forcefully pinch someone else as you would have them forcefully pinch you, as a test of existence or nothingness.)
