semimajor eksen

listen to the pronunciation of semimajor eksen
Turkish - English
semimajor axis
Half of the major axis of a circle or ellipse
Half of the distances between the two branches of a hyperbola
one-half the major axis of an ellipse; the distance from the center of an ellipse to one end
One half of the major axis of an ellipse
One-half of the longest dimension of an ellipse
The semimajor axis of an ellipse is half of the maximum diameter
semi = [Latin] half; maior = [Latin] great; axis = [Latin] axis The semimajor axis is one of the orbital elements that determine the shape and orientation of a simple orbit in space It is a measure for the size of the orbit of a celestial object For an ellipse, it is equal to one half of the length of the longest axis of the ellipse For a circle, it is equal to the radius of the circle For an object orbiting around a much heavier object (such as a planet or spacecraft around the Sun, or a moon or spacecraft around a planet), the semimajor axis of the orbit is equal to the average of the smallest and the largest distance between the light and the heavy objects

a property of an ellipse, giving its width measured along the line connecting its two foci The semi-major axis of an orbital ellipse is one of the "orbital elements" characterizing it, and is directly related to the energy of the motion
a property of an ellipse, equal to half its greatest width, as measured along the line connecting its two foci The semi-major axis of an orbital ellipse is one of the "orbital elements" characterizing it, and is directly related to the energy of the motion
One-half of the major axis or an ellipse
One-half the longest diameter of an ellipse
Half the major axis of an ellipse For a planetary orbit, it represents the body's average distance from the Sun
