Chapter 7, Problem 63PQ
Planetary orbits are often approximated as uniform circular motion. Figure P7.9 is a scaled representation of a planet’s orbit with a semimajor axis of 1.524 AU.
a. Use Figure P7.9 to find the ratio of the Sun’s maximum gravitational field to its minimum gravitational field on the planet’s orbit.
b. What is the ratio of the planet’s maximum speed to its minimum speed?
c. Comment on the validity of approximating this orbit as uniform circular motion.

- 13.87 ... Interplanetary Navigation. The most efficient way to send a spacecraft from the earth to another planet is by using a Hohmann transfer orbit (Fig. P13.87). If the orbits of the departure and destination planets are circular, the Hohmann transfer orbit is an elliptical orbit whose perihelion and aphelion are tangent to the orbits of the two planets. The rockets are fired briefly at the depar- ture planet to put the spacecraft into the transfer orbit; the spacecraft then coasts until it reaches the destination planet. The rockets are then fired again to put the spacecraft into the same orbit about the sun as the destination planet. (a) For a flight from earth to Mars, in what direction must the rockets be fired at the earth and at Mars: in the direction of motion, or opposite the direction of motion? What about for a flight from Mars to the earth? (b) How long does a one- way trip from the the earth to Mars take, between the firings of the rockets?
