Kepler Problem

1 Central Force and Central Potential

The central force on an object is a force directed along the line joining the object and the origin. We often describe such forces as

\mathbf{F}(\mathbf{r})=F(\mathbf{r})\hat{\mathbf{r}}, …(1)

where \mathbf{r} is the position, or called radius vector, with \hat{\mathbf{r}} being its unit vector (or called unit radial vector) and r being its magnitude. \mathbf{F} is the force as a vector-valued function of position. The (vector) field derived from a central force is called a central field.

Here we restrict our attention to conservative systems (i.e. without energy dissipation due to non-conservative forces, such as friction), then the magnitude F(r) of a central force can always be expressed as the derivative of a time-independent potential energy function U(r):

F(r)=-\dfrac{\text{d}U(r)}{\text{d}r}. …(2)

李臨秋、鄧雨賢-四季紅

台語流行歌曲〈四季紅〉是由知名作詞人李臨秋(1909-1979)和知名作曲家鄧雨賢合作,原唱是純純(1914-1943)與豔豔,1938年由台灣日東唱片發行。

〈四季紅〉的歌詞大意是敘述熱戀情侶的感情,不受季節的變遷所影響,而它的曲風也一反台語情歌哀怨的基調,屬於活潑且生動的作品。鄧泰超(鄧雨賢之孫)在開放博物館以中國傳統樂理分析它的曲調如下(有蟲膠曲盤可試聽):

歌曲曲調為四拍子,分二段,前段以兩小節為一樂句,前兩句前均起於徵音,分別進行至角音、商音,屬徵調式;第三句宮音起,結束於徵音;第四句則角音起,結束於宮音,屬宮調式。後段可分為兩、兩、三小節句式。第一句起於徵音進行至商音,第二句起於宮音亦進行至宮音,第三句起於徵音亦結束於徵音,屬徵調式。因此此曲仍屬徵調式,只是其中含有轉至宮調式的性質。另本曲雖用七聲音階,但清角(第六級音)及變宮(第三級音)音的運用屬鄰音或經過音性質、因此仍具明顯的五聲音階性格。
