A satellite describes an elliptic orbit about a planet of mass M . The minimum and maximum values of the distance r from the satellite to the center of the planet are, respectively, r0 and r1. Use the principles of conservation of energy and conservation of angular momentum to derive the relationwhere h is the angular momentum per unit mass of the satellite and G is the constant of gravitation.

What is the minimum velocity boost Av necessary to reach point B, which is a distance max = 2.68R from the center of the earth? At what point in the original circular orbit should the velocity increment be added? Answer: Av= i min max B m/sarrow_forwardDuring lecture we discussed that an elliptical orbit is not necessarily helpful to escapeEarth, and we said we would not investigate that further (but you are welcome on yourown).However, it is useful to investigate the radius of the “best” (ie, lowest Δv) circular parkingorbit. For this problem consider the following “steps” to Escape Earth:1. A Hohmann transfer from the surface to the parking orbit (i.e., 2 Δv’s).Assumptions:a. launch exactly from the equator with zero velocity relative to thegroundb. there is no atmosphere, mountains, obstacles, etc - the Δv canhappen in the tangential direction from the groundc. Simplify for now and use the Earth rotation = 1 revolution in 24hours2. A Δv from the parking orbit to escape Earth3.

As the probe reaches A, the point of its original trajectory closest to Venus, it is inserted in a first elliptic transfer orbit by reducing its speed by ΔvA. This orbit brings it to point B with a much reduced velocity. There the probe is inserted in a second transfer orbit located in the specified plane by changing the direction of its velocity and further reducing its speed by ΔvB. Finally, as the probe reaches point C, it is inserted in the desired circular orbit by reducing its speed by ΔvC. Knowing that the mass of Venus is 0.82 times the mass of the earth, that rA = 9.3 × 103 mi and rB = 190 × 103 mi, and that the probe approaches A on a parabolic trajectory, determine by how much the velocity of the probe should be reduced (a) at A, (b) at B, (c) at C.arrow_forward

Determine (a) the velocity of the IUS relative to the shuttle after its engine has been fired at A,( b) the increase in velocity required at B to place the satellite in its final orbit.Reference to Problem 13.87:arrow_forwardA space probe is to be placed in a circular orbit of radius 4o00 km about the planet Mars. As the probe reaches A, the point of its original trajectory closest to Mars, it is inserted into a first elliptic transfer orbit by reducing its speed.
