Kepler's laws are about the planets' orbits.
The first law says that the orbit of any planet around the Sun is an ellipse with the Sun at one of the focii.
The second law states that the line joining the Sun to a planet covers equal area in equal intervals of time.
The third law states the square of the time period of the planet is proportional to the cube of the semi-major axis of its elliptical orbit.
Kepler's law explained planetary motion, but nothing other than motion, and really no one could properly explain why Kepler's law worked. So therefore we move on to Newton's first law.
What else can I help you with?
What was Johannes Kepler's nickname?
1. planets travel in elliptical orbits around an off-centre sun. 2. the speed of a planet's orbit depends on its distance from the sun. when a planet's close to the sun it, orbits faster. when it's further away from the sun, it travels slower 3. the farther a planet or dwarf planet is from the sun, the longer its orbit *note: did this because there weren't any fricken answers on the web that was specific, easy and in point form answer. Have fun!!!!! (you probably won't) lol :P
What conclusion did Kepler eventually come to that revolutionized the heliocentric model of the solar system?
kepler determined the planetary orbits were elliptical
What did Thyco Brahe study?
Mostly, his eyes and pen. He also used azimuth circles that circumscribed his observatory at Uraniborg to assist him in accurately plotting the movements of the stars, planets and other celestial objects. Brahe also built a sextant many times larger than any that had been built before, increasing it's accuracy notably. No previous observer had ever recorded so many detailed positions of objects in the heavens.
How did Tycho Brahe contribute Kepler's laws?
Tycho, for the most part, just gathered a vast amount of data of the planets and their movements. He didn't really do much analyzing of the data to come up with laws or theories. That was done after his death by his assistant, Johannes Kepler, who took that very data and discovered alot about how the planets move and orbit the sun. But Tycho's contribution was significant because he devised ways of measuring the positions of planets and other objects that were more accurate than ever before. These allowed Kepler to do better calcuations than before and discover the small differences between the old model of planetary orbits and the elliptical orbits that Kepler discovered and passed on to later scientists.
Which is not one of Newton's laws?
A) What goes up must come down. The three laws Sir Isaac Newton's three laws of motion describe the motion of massive bodies and how they interact. While Newton's laws may seem obvious to us today, more than three centuries ago they were considered revolutionary. What Are Newton's Three Laws of Motion? Newton's First Law of Motion (Law of Inertia) Newton's Second Law of Motion (Law of Mass and Acceleration) Newton's Third Law of Motion
Would Johannes Kepler have been as successful as he was if Brahe had not come before him?
Johannes Kepler
What is use of Johannes Kepler's invention telescope?
A telescope is used to magnify things that are far away.That said, I'm not sure who told you that Johannes Kepler invented the telescope. He didn't invent the telescope itself, but he did come up with a new design. Kepler's design uses a convex lens at the eyepiece rather than a concave one. This has several advantages, but a couple of disadvantages, such as the image appearing upside down. This makes it largely useless for terrestrial work, but it's suitable for astronomy, which is what Kepler was interested in anyway.
Who was Johannes Kepler mentor?
He did his best work with Tycho Brahe who was a Danish nobleman who employed Kepler as a mathematician, a fairly junior appointment. Tycho tended to keep his measurements secret, to retain control, but after his death Kepler was able to to get full access and then produced his famous three laws of planetary motion.

Where Did Isaac Newton come up with the three laws of motion?
Isaac Newton thought of the three laws of motion while watching an apple fall from a tree.
What conclusion did Kepler eventually come to that revolutionized the heliocentric model of the solar system?
kepler determined the planetary orbits were elliptical
How does the gravity of Kepler compare to the gravity on earth?
There is no single planet named Kepler. Rather, the Kepler label is added to the designations of planets discovered using the Kepler telescope. Planets discovered in this way are given designations such as Kepler-20f and Kepler-87c. There are more than 1,000 of these planets that come in a wide range of masses and a wide range of surface gravities.

When were elliptical orbits discovered?
That has never been proven, and it's impossible to prove. It's "only a theory".However, in the 16th Century, Johannes Kepler showed that IF that's what's happening, then itwould accurately explain all the motions of the sun, moon, and planets that we actually do see inthe sky.Since that model so successfully explained what we see ... and a century later, Newton showedthat if his ideas about gravity were correct, then planets have to travel elliptical paths aroundthe sun ... Kepler's model was accepted as the best theory. But it can't be proven.And not only that! If you find something seen in the sky that Kepler's model doesn't explain, orif you come up with an explanation that fits the observations with better accuracy, then Kepler'stheory will be thrown out, and yours will become the accepted one.That's how Science works.
