Anomalistic Period
The anomalistic period is the time that elapses between two passages of an object at its periapsis, the point of its closest approach to the attracting body.
Symbol: TAP
Measurement: TimeUnit: s
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Mean Motion
Mean Motion is angular speed required for a body to complete an orbit, assuming constant speed in circular orbit that takes same time as variable speed elliptical orbit of actual body.
Symbol: n
Measurement: Angular VelocityUnit: rad/s
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Archimedes' constant
Archimedes' constant is a mathematical constant that represents the ratio of the circumference of a circle to its diameter.
Symbol: π

How to Evaluate Anomalistic Period?

Anomalistic Period evaluator uses Anomalistic Period = (2*pi)/Mean Motion to evaluate the Anomalistic Period, The Anomalistic Period formula is defined as the time between two successive perihelions (the point in a planet's orbit where it is closest to the Sun). Anomalistic Period is denoted by TAP symbol.

FAQs on Anomalistic Period

What is the formula to find Anomalistic Period?
The formula of Anomalistic Period is expressed as Anomalistic Period = (2*pi)/Mean Motion. Here is an example- 139.6263 = (2*pi)/0.045.
How to calculate Anomalistic Period?
With Mean Motion (n) we can find Anomalistic Period using the formula - Anomalistic Period = (2*pi)/Mean Motion. This formula also uses Archimedes' constant .
Can the Anomalistic Period be negative?
No, the Anomalistic Period, measured in Time cannot be negative.
Which unit is used to measure Anomalistic Period?
Anomalistic Period is usually measured using the Second[s] for Time. Millisecond[s], Microsecond[s], Nanosecond[s] are the few other units in which Anomalistic Period can be measured.
