Don't forget frame dragging [Gravity Probe B], geodetic effect
[Gravity Probe B], time dilation [GPS, Hafele-Keating], gravitational
lensing {weak,strong} [Eddington], Shapiro effect [Erwin Shaprio re:
Venus' position], gravitational radiation [Hulse & Taylor re: PSR
1913+16], equivalence principle {weak,strong} [Nortdveldt effect via
lunar ranging], black holes, gravitationally hyperbound neutron stars,
superluminal projection effects [quasar jets], etc.

Other than that, yea Newtonian physics works great.

Man you must be a really smart guy copying and pasting all that stuff.
In any ordinary orbital mechanics within our solar system and with any
man made objects, Newtonian orbital mechanics work abslutely
perfectly.

This means there is no abrigement of the basic principles form Newton,
such as that any body in motion retains this motion in a straight line
until some force causes it otherwise.

Although you cannot understand this because you are both mechanically
inept and mathematically inept. You do pretty well with the copy and
paste and expostulating your irritation though, Irritated Eric.

You are an idiot. Mechanically inept chumps like you like to hide in
theoretical physics. You should really be in literature or classical
verse.

Momentum is always in a straight line. Angular momentum for a flywheel
only occurs because of the constant translation of the linear momentum
by the fixed solid of the body. The centripetal force is due to the
momentum in a straight line as evidenced by release of an object from
the flywheel. The object, once released, travels in exactly a straight
line.

It is this fact also that causes the rotation of drains and such. The
object is pulled towards the center of the earth, but since the
surface is moving by the rotation, the direction to the center of the
earth is changing. But the obect has been pulled towards the point
that the center of the earth was and maintains this and these vectors
in the components of it's present vector.

Orbital angular momentum is analagous to the momentum of a ball thrown
in gravity. The ball has the intial vector of it's momentum. This
vector remains if it is not contradictory to the gravitational force
and the intitial vector and the contiually appied vectors of the force
are simply added.

If the initial vector is contrary to the direction of the force, the
force works against this vector according to the cosine of theta.

The continually added vectors of the force are applied, so the path of
the ball can be computed. This path is curved. At any specific moment,
the ball has a momentum in a single direction. But in the course of
time, due to the constantly applied force, will travel in an arc. The
straight line of it's single vector of momentum at any time, and a
point on it's path which will be curved due to the applied force, has
an angle. Thus the term 'angular momentum'. A object at a specific
moment always has only one vector of momentum, since any combinations
of vectors combine into a single vector.

Therefore it can be determined, as was determined by Newton, that a
circular orbit is not possible as is defined in Keplers first law. For
an object to be at constant radius it must be at constant velocity. At
90 degs to the source of gravity, cosine is 0, therefore there would
be no effect against the vector of the velocity by the gravitational
force. But the gravitational force is always acting upon the body
pulling it to the side, and if so adds to the kinetic energy of the
body by imposing these vectors.

Since average velocity for a uniform acceleration is always 1/2 of
final velocity, it can be seen that at the proper distance from the
gravitational force in which the force of the gravity and the momentum
of the object traveling at 90 degs to the gravity is such that it will
be at a point of equal radius to the surface, the force of gravity
will add vectors to the velocity.

If in one second it has the correct momentum to maintain it's constant
radius, in the second second it will not. Very basic physics.

KD, in a circular orbit, only the direction of the velocity and momentum
vectors are changing, not the magnitude. There is no change in KE.
