The first artificial satellite to orbit the earth was Sputnik I. Its highest point above earth's
surface was 947 km, and its lowest point was 228 km. The center of the earth was at one
focus of the elliptical orbit. The radius of the earth is 6378 km. Find the eccentricity ofthe
orbit.
The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) is a new space telescope currently under construction. The JWST will orbit the
Sun in an orbit roughly 1.5 million km from the earth, in a position with the Earth between the telescope and the Sun. The
primary mirror of the JWST will consist of 18 hexagonally shaped segments that when fitted together will be 6.5 m in
diameter (over 2.5 times the diameter of the Hubble). With a larger mirror, the JWST will be able to collect more light to
"see" deeper into space.
The primary mirror when pieced together will function as a parabolic mirror with a focal length of 131.4 m. Suppose that a
coordinate system is chosen with (0, 0) at the center of a cross section of the primary mirror. Write an equation of the
parabolic cross section of the mirror for –3.25 s xs 3.25. Assume that x and y are measured in meters.

Comet C has an elliptical orbit of eccentricity 0.9393 with the sun at one focus. The greatest distance of the comet from the sun is 2848 million mi. Find the least distance between the comet C and the sun.
The least distance between the comet C and the sun is
million mi.
