SOLVING TWO-BODY PROBLEM FOR EARTH AND MOON ON THE MAPLE

Author: Akhmedov, B.; Khamrokulov, F.

Annotation: The two-body problem has been a fundamental topic in physics and astronomy for centuries. In this article, we use Maple to solve the two-body problem for Earth and Moon, which involves finding the positions and velocities of both objects at any given time, taking into account their gravitational attraction. We first derive the equations of motion for the system, and then use Maple to numerically solve these equations and generate plots of the trajectories of Earth and Moon. Our results demonstrate the power and versatility of Maple for solving complex physics problems.

Keywords: two-body problem, Earth and Moon, gravitational attraction, equations of motion, numerical solution.
