Today in class we watched a video about the "same same" teacher and the topic about the video was about the relationship of energy, gravity, and speed required to orbit and escape the earth, and the 's gravitational field, the vectors associated with the path of flight/orbit, and the shape of the orbits known as ellipses. It also explained why the paths of orbits were ellipses and how Kepler didn't see this visualization. Lastly, it went over the potential and kinetic energy relationships of the orbits.
Handouts on the "escape speed", "falling moon", "artificial satellites", and a practice sheet were given out.
