you accept what you perceive to be real and I will accept what I perceive to be real.
hows that?
but go ahead bill and put the earth in jupiters orbit but dont change its speed , and see if it stays there.
it should because mass has nothing to do with orbits and
even though the earth is less massive than jupiter your
perception should be real enough for you.
but let me do it for you using your equation even.
I did this so that you can easily cut-n-paste the values
into your calculator.
earth in jupiters orbit...LOL
G = 0.0000000000667 N(m/kg)^2
M = mass of earth = 5973600000000000000000000.00 kg
radius = 778,547,200,000 m
v=sqr(GM)/r
0.0000000000667 * 5973600000000000000000000.00 = 398439120000000.00
398439120000000.00 / 778,547,200,000 = 511.77
sqrt of 511.77 = 22.62 meters/s
511.77 / 1000 = 0.022622391 km/s
so theres your proof bill.
using your math.
the only thing I did was change the mass of jupiter
with the mass of the earth and low and behold what a
difference.
jupiter has a orbital speed of 13.07 km/s today.
but in order for the earth to orbit in jupiters orbit its orbital velocity would need to be reduced from
29.78 km/s to 0.022622391 km/s otherwise the earth in jupiters orbit would simply leave the solar system.
what a tragic occurance that would be and all because mass
has nothing whatsoever to do with orbits.
So brace up and accept that it is real.
I would have to say that my perception of reality is much closer to reality than your perception of reality.
