How did newtons work on orbits add to work Kepler had done?

Newton derived Keplars findings from Newton's Theory of Gravity. Thus, newton 'explained' the basis for Keplars findings and extended them.


Whose laws of motion keeps planets in their orbit?

Gravity keeps planets in their orbits.Newton's laws of motion and universal gravitation explain how orbits work, but have no influence whatsoeveron causing it to work that way.


What are two things that work together keeping planets in their orbits around the sun?

Gravity and the laws of motion, specifically Newton's laws of motion, work together to keep planets in their orbits around the sun. Gravity from the sun pulls the planets towards it, while the inertia of the planets moving in a straight line causes them to travel in an elliptical orbit around the sun.


What work contributed to the modern understanding of the solar system by determining that the planets moved in elliptical orbits?

That was the work of Kepler, resulting in his Laws of Planetary Motion.


Did Johannes Kepler discover Kepler planets?

No, Johannes Kepler is best known for describing the laws that dictate how orbits work. The Kepler planets were discovered by the Kepler telescope, a spacecraft named in his honor.


What famous work did Kepler write explaining the way the planets move?

Kepler studied the planets' orbits and published his three laws of planetary motion, in 1609 and 1619. His most famous work was probably the 1609 book called "Astronomia Nova".


How did keplers work improve on or support Copernicus heliocentric theory?

Kepler completely replaced Copernicus's theory of the orbits of the planets, which was based on circles an epicycles, with a new theory using elliptical orbits. However Kepler retained Copernicus's idea of placing the Sun at the centre.


How many satellites have all planets?

this is a good question.scientists and astronomers should work on this.


What contribution did Brahe and Kepler make to Astronomy?

He made surprisingly accurate positional measurements of the brighter stars in the sky without the aid of a telescope. He did this through an important step in the scientific method...repeating your work. This helped make his measurements as accurate as they were. This information was passed on to one of his assistants, Johannes Kepler, who used the information to develop Keplers Laws of Planetary Motion.


What did Johannes Kepler discover that the paths planets follow are?

Kepler discovered that the planets move in elliptical orbits and he published three laws of planetary motion that explained the details of the ellipses. Kepler's work used observations done by Tycho Brahe, and subsequent observations confirmed that Kepler's laws were correct (they still are). No-one knew why until the later discoveries of the laws of motion and the laws of gravity about 70 years later.


Who was the German astronomer who proved that the planets move in oval paths called ellipses?

Johannes Kepler was the German astronomer who proved that the planets move in oval paths called ellipses. His work laid the foundation for the laws of planetary motion.
