Question
Find ecentricity of new orbit..do not give copied solution from chegg.. wrong ans will be devoted..
A spacecraft is in an earth orbit of e =0.7. When its altitude is 500 km and the speed is
7.4 km/s, a velocity impulse of magnitude 500 m/s is applied at an angle 60- from the i
nitial flight direction, in order to increase the speed and flight-path angle simultaneous
ly, but without changing the orbital plane. Determine the new orbit of the spacecraft.
