Gravitation between the Moon and the Earth: physics project

[isukatphysics69]

aw crap what
its not possible at this point, its 4 am and due tommorow

 

[isukatphysics69]

i am attempting to fix it

 

[isukatphysics69]

i think i just fixed it, if you come back please let me know
oh my lord i think i may have just fixed it

[isukatphysics69]

Graphs are updated and still looking good, not much of a change in the graphs as i go lower the acceleration is decreasing

I think this is what i have to go with regardless. i gave it my best shot now have to move on and will read feedback if given from prof

 

[isukatphysics69]

this is screwed

Kudos for your tenacity ! Hope the test went well...

I mentioned you in a related thread . A lot of good reading in the pdf link in post #5.

There also is a recent earth-moon thread here:

So I was messing with VPython, trying to create an Earth-Moon System. I got the actual gravity to work, and can create some nice ellipical orbits. However I run into trouble trying to make the actual (almost) circular orbit of the moon.

Definitely failed that final exam but my test average this semester was 84 over 6 test so I think I will pass the course. Very disappointed in self but how on Earth ani supposed to pass a final that has 2/6 questions that we covered last week. So I answers 3/ 6 questions and we were supposed to answer 4/6 to have a chance at full credit plus this project lack of sleep and food was a recipe for disaster plus I'm just a complete moron but whatever I failed sometimes you fail

Sure, and the world is a bad place etcetera
You're entitled to a bit of disappointment, not to a lamentation like this and self depreciation. Consider it a learning experience: planning, sleep, food, whatever is imoporant too and can only be ignored at a price. You come out of this better than you were. Cheer up.
Find a real shoulder if necessary. PF doesn't provide effectively in such matters

Alright man thank you, I'm sure i will be back posting 10 threads per week again in the fall for physics 2. Have a good summer

thank you for all the help, I'm sure I will be back for calculus 3 in a few weeks. Take care :)
