- A spacecraft approaching the planet Saturn reaches point A with a velocity vA of magnitude 68.8 × 103 ft/s. It is to be placed in an elliptic orbit about Saturn so that it will be able to periodically examine Tethys, one of Saturn’s moons. Tethys is in a circular orbit of radius 183 × 103 mi about the center of Saturn, traveling at a speed of 37.2 × 103 ft/s. Determine (a) the decrease in speed required by the spacecraft at A to achieve the desired orbit, (b) the speed of the spacecraft when it reaches the orbit of Tethys at B.arrow_forwardGravitational Slingshot Often in designing orbits for satellites, people use what is termed a "gravitational slingshot effect." The idea is as follows: A satellite of mass m; and speed v,i circles around a planet of mass m, that is moving with speed v in the opposite direction. See the diagram below: Although the satellite never touches the planet, this interaction can still be treated as a collision because of the gravitational interaction between the planet and satellite during the slingshot. Since gravity is a conservative force, the collision is elastic. Use an x-axis with positive pointing to the right. Solve for the unknowns below algebraically first, then use the following values for the parameters. m, = 2.40E+24 kg m; = 880 kg Viz = 3.050E+3 m/s Vpiz = -6.10E+3 m/s Solve for the final velocity of the satellite after the collision.arrow_forwardAt perigee of an elliptic gravitational orbit a particle experiences an impulse S in the radial direction, sending the particle into another elliptic orbit.Determine the new semi-major axis, eccentricity, and orientation in terms ofthe old.arrow_forward
- A space probe is to be placed in a circular orbit of 5600-mi radius about the planet Venus in a specified plane. 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_forwardThe pilot of an airplane carrying a package of mail to a remote outpost wishes to release the package at the right moment to hit the recovery location A.
