L11 The equation of a plane
... The last equation asserts that v−v0 is parallel to the fixed vector p. The equations therefore determine a straight line ` that passes through the point (x 0 , y0 , z0 ) with position vector v0 and direction p. Any one of (6) is called the parametric equation of the line. Because ` lies in both plan ...

Dirac Notation
... Notation can help us substantially in thinking about and manipulating symbolic representations meant to describe complex physical phenomena. The brain’s working memory can only manipulate a small number of ideas at once (“72”). We handle complex ideas by “chunking” — binding together many things an ...

... Newton’s law of universal gravitation-an inverse square law. Gravity PE U = mgh, for constant force on the earth and U =0 on the surface. For variable force Gravity U = GmM/ r, and U at infinity is zero as a reference. Satellite motion in circular orbits. Planetary motion in elliptical orbits. Keple ...
