ABSTRACT: By analytically solving a corrected balance between the force given by
the Newton’s 2nd law and the Newton gravitational force in polar
coordinates, an equation for the intrinsic (i.e. two-body problem) perihelion precession of the planets of the solar system was
obtained that when the Kepler’s 3rd law is applied it coincides with
the equation resulting from Einstein GTR.
