Project Name : The Live Universe
Theme Name : Mathematics Modelling
Aim/ Objective:
a) To have a live look of the Universe
b) Solution to save the Earth from the Asteroids.
Scientific Principle:
Planets are revolving under the principle of Kepler’s 3
Laws of Planetory Motion
1. The orbit of every planet is an ellipse with the Sun at one of the two foci.
2. A line joining a planet and the Sun sweeps out equal areas during
equal intervals of time.
3. The square of the orbital period of a planet is proportional to the cube of the semi-major axis of its orbit.
Materials used for the exhibit: A plywood box, balls, concave lens, electric circuits, DC Motor, Strings, Led bulbs, Laser light, LDR UM66T-speaker circuit, etc.
Working Investigation/Findings:
1. To show the present day’s planetary motion.
2. The innovative idea used in this model is how to protect Earth from the attack of asteroids by using LDR’s.
Utility and further scope of the project:
It can be used as educational model to visualize the reality.
It can be exhibited in science museum.
