Chapter 13.2, Problem 13.101P

While describing a circular orbit, 185 mi above the surface of the earth, a space shuttle ejects at point A an inertial upper stage (IUS) carrying a communications satellite to be placed in a geosynchronous orbit (see Prob. 13.87) at an altitude of 22,230 mi above the surface of the earth. 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.

To determine

Find the velocity of the IUS relative to the shuttle after its engine has been fired at A (ΔvA).

Answer to Problem 13.101P

The velocity of the IUS relative to the shuttle after its engine has been fired at A (ΔvA) is 7960ft/s_.

Explanation of Solution

Given information:

The distance from above the earth surface to the circular orbit (x) is 185mi.

The altitude of the geosynchronous orbit (A) is 22230mi.

The radius of the earth (R) is 3960mi.

The acceleration due to gravity (g) is 9.81m/s2.

Calculation:

Convert the unit of radius of earth (R) from miles to feet using the relation:

R=RE×(5280ft1mi)

Here, RE is the radius of the earth.

Substitute 3960mi for RE.

R=3960mi×(5280ft1mi)=20.909×106ft

Write the expression for the force acting on the spacecraft on the surface of the earth due to gravity (F0) as follows:

F0=mg

Write the expression for calculating the geocentric force acting on the spacecraft when it is on the surface of earth (F0) as follows:

F0=GMmR2

Here, G is the universal gravitational constant, M is the mass of the earth and F0 is the force acting on the missile on the surface of the earth.

Substitute mg for F0.

F0=GMmR2mg=GMmR2GM=gR2

Substitute 32.2ft/s2 for g and 20.909×106ft for R.

GM=(32.2 ft/s2)(20.909×106ft)2=(9.81)(437.19×1012)=14.077×1015ft3/s2

Write the expression for the centripetal force acting on the space shuttle carrying satellite rotating around the earth at the given altitude as follows:

F=mv2r (1)

Here, m is the mass of the space shuttle, vC is the velocity of the space shuttle describing a circular path around the earth and r is the distance or radius of the satellite from the center of the earth.

Write the expression for the geocentric force acting on the spacecraft rotating at the given altitude around the earth (F) as follows;

F=GMmr2 (2)

Equate the equations (1) and (2).

mv2r=GMmr2v2=GMrv=GMr

Calculate the altitude of the space shuttle from center of earth at position A(rA) using the relation:

rA=R+x

Substitute 20.909×106ft for R and 185mi for x.

rA=20.909×106ft+185×(5280ft1mi)=20.909×106+0.9768×106=21.886×106ft

Calculate the velocity of space shuttle at point A inertial upper stage (vA)circ using the formula:

(vA)circ=GMrA

Substitute 14.077×1015ft3/s2 for GM and 21.886×106ft for rA.

(vA)circ=14.077×1015ft3/s221.886×106ft=643.23×106=25.362×103ft/s

Calculate the altitude of the space shuttle from center of earth at position A(rB) using the relation:

rB=R+A

Substitute 20.909×106ft for R and 22230mi for A.

rB=20.909×106ft+22230×(5280ft1mi)=20.909×106+117.374×106=138.283×106ft

Calculate the velocity of space shuttle at point B (vB)circ just after the satellite is placed on the geosynchronous orbit using the formula:

(vB)circ=GMrB

Substitute 14.077×1015ft3/s2 for GM and 138.283×106ft for rB.

(vB)circ=14.077×1015ft3/s2138.383×106ft=101.787×106=10.089×103ft/s

Use the principle of conservation of angular momentum states that in the absence of external torque acting on the body, the angular momentum remains constant and no change of the momentum occurs during the entire process.

Find the velocity at B:

mrAvA=mrBvBvB=rAvArB

Here, vB is velocity of the space shuttle at position B, vA is the velocity of the space shuttle at position A.

Substitute 21.886×106ft for rA and 138.283×106ft for rB.

vB=(21.886×106ft)vA(138.283×106ft)=0.1581vA (1)

Write the expression for the kinetic energy of the space shuttle at point A (TA) in the path AB as follows:

TA=12mvA2

Write the expression for the kinetic energy of the space shuttle at point B (TB) in the path AB as follows:

TB=12mvB2

Write the expression for the gravitational potential energy of the space shuttle at position A in the path AB (VA) as follows:

VA=GMmrA

Write the expression for the gravitational potential energy of the space shuttle at position B in the path AB (VB) as follows;

VB=GMmrB

Use the principle of conservation of energy states that sum of the kinetic and potential energy of a particle remains constant.

Calculate the speed of the space shuttle at position A (vA) and at position B (vB) when the space shuttle is following the path AB by using principle of conservation of energy.

Write the expression for the conservation of energy as follows:

TA+VA=TB+VB

Substitute 12mvA2 for TA, GMmrA for VA, 12mvB2 for TB, and GMmrB for VB.

12mvA2GMmrA=12mvB2GMmrB12(vA2vB2)=GMrAGMrBvA2vB2=2GM(1rA1rB)vB2=vA22GM(1rA1rB)

Find the velocity at A:

Substitute 0.1581vA for vB, 14.077×1015ft3/s2 for GM, 21.886×106ft for rA and 138.283×106ft for rB.

vB2=vA22GM(1rA1rB)(0.1581vA)2=vA22(14.077×1015ft3/s2)(121.886×106ft1138.283×106ft)0.025vA2=vA2(28.154×1015)(0.03846×106)

vA20.025vA2=(28.154×1015)(0.03846×106)0.975vA2=1.0828×109vA2=1.1106×109

vA=1.1106×109vA=33.325×103ft/s

Consider the equation (1).

Find the velocity at B:

Substitute 33.325×103ft/s for vA.

vB=0.1581(33.325×103ft/s)=7.963×103ft/s

Calculate the velocity of the IUS relative to the shuttle after the engine has been fired at point A (ΔvA) using the relation:

ΔvA=vA(vA)circ

Substitute 33.325×103ft/s for vA and 25.362×103ft/s for (vA)circ.

ΔvA=33.325×103ft/s25.362×103ft/s=7.960×103ft/s=7960ft/s

Therefore, the velocity of the IUS relative to the shuttle after its engine has been fired at A (ΔvA) is 7960ft/s_.

To determine

Find the increase in velocity required at B (ΔvB) to place the satellite in its final orbit.

Answer to Problem 13.101P

The increase in velocity required at B (ΔvB) to place the satellite in its final orbit is 4820ft/s_.

Explanation of Solution

Given information:

The distance from above the earth surface to the circular orbit (x) is 185mi.

The altitude of the geosynchronous orbit (A) is 22230mi.

The radius of the earth (R) is 3960mi.

The acceleration due to gravity (g) is 9.81m/s2.

Calculation:

Calculate the increase in the velocity required at B to place the satellite in its final orbit (ΔvB) using the relation:

ΔvB=(vB)circvB

Substitute 10.089×103ft/s for (vB)circ and 7.963×103ft/s for vB.

ΔvB=(10.089×103ft/s)(7.963×103ft/s)=4.820×103ft/s=4820ft/s

Therefore, the increase in velocity required at B (ΔvB) to place the satellite in its final orbit is 4820ft/s_.
