CM Motion and Orbits
Bottom Line
β€’ We use relative and cm coordinates in the
Lagrangian. The cm coordinates are ignorable.
β€’ We find an equation for π‘Ÿ(πœ‘)
𝑐
π‘Ÿ πœ‘ =
1 + πœ€ cos πœ‘
β€’ πœ€ is the eccentricity and 𝑐 is chosen to match
boundary conditions

β€’ So
𝑀𝑋 = π‘€π‘Œ = 𝑀𝑍 = 0
The cm moves at a constant velocity
Spherical Coordinates
β€’ We know π‘₯ = π‘Ÿ cos πœ‘ and 𝑦 = π‘Ÿ sin πœ‘
π‘₯ = π‘Ÿ cos πœ‘ + π‘Ÿ sin πœ‘πœ‘
𝑦 = π‘Ÿ sin πœ‘ βˆ’ π‘Ÿ cos πœ‘πœ‘
