What happens when eccentricity is 1?

If the eccentricity is zero, the curve is a circle; if equal to one, a parabola; if less than one, an ellipse; and if greater than one, a hyperbola.

Are there units of eccentricity?

There are no units for eccentricity.

What is eccentricity of a conic?

The eccentricity e of a conic section is defined to be the distance from any point on the conic section to its focus, divided by the perpendicular distance from that point to the nearest directrix. This value is constant for any conic section, and can define the conic section as well: If e=1, the conic is a parabola.

What is the eccentricity of a perfect circle?

The eccentricity of a perfect circle is zero and the eccentricity of an ellipse that has been squished to a flat line is one.

What is Directrix of ellipse?

Each of the two lines parallel to the minor axis, and at a distance of. from it, is called a directrix of the ellipse (see diagram).
