- Do it fast for likearrow_forwardPlease help with the solution to this problem using (km/s). I know we will use Hohmann Transfer and a combined plane change. In the opening scene of the movie “Gravity” Dr Ryan Stone (Sandra Bullock) and Matt Kowalsky (George Clooney) are required to transit from the Hubble Space Telescope (Altitude 600 km, 28.5 degree inclination) to the International Space Station (Altitude 400 km, 51.6 degree inclination) using nothing but their Manned Maneuvering Units (MMU). An MMU has a delta V capability of about 30 m/s, and it would be impossible to perform this maneuver with so little delta V, but… a.) How much delta V would be required for this maneuver? b.)

- That still doesn't answer my question. How did you take (m1 + m2)2 + (m1 + m2)2 and get (m1 + m2)2. Where did the extra (m1 + m2)2 go? There were two of them. Now there's suddenly one.
