Enter your answer with three digits to the right of the decimal place. 0.25 Correct! Correct! orrect Answers orrect Answers 0.25 (with margin: 0.005) Note that there are two distinct ways to arrive at the desired answer: 1) Compute the eccentricity vector (Section 1.5.4) and compute its magnitude 2) Use Eq. (1.6-4) 1 / 1 pts Question 3 An earth-orbiting satellite has position and velocity vectors with the following components in the ECI (Earth-centered Inertial) frame: r = [ -3768.898590749048 5775.168162840780 5666.276730382231 ] km v = [ -6.115766984337169 -3.639592684497697 1.559458236776916 ] km/s What is the inclination of the orbit? Enter your answer in radians with three digits to the right of the decimal place.
