A 3330-kg spacecraft is in a circular orbit 2770 km above the surface of Mars. How much work must the spacecraft engines perform to move the spacecraft to a circular orbit that is 4960 km above the surf
10-69 part A only! dynamics problem the ans should be 20.2Mm the earth 10.69 A spacecraft is describing a circular orbit of 12-Mm radius around tbe earth when its rockets are fired momentarily to increase the speed of the spacecraft by 1 km/s. The spacecraft is thus inserted into an elliptic orbit as shown. For the spacecraft in this elliptic orbit, determine (a) the 12 Mm ximum altitude, (b) its period of orbit, 10.70 A spacecraft coasting along a parabolic...
A 3390-kg spacecraft is in a circular orbit 1990 km above the surface of Mars. How much work must the spacecraft engines perform to move the spacecraft to a circular orbit that is 3990 km above the surface? Express your answer to three significant figures. Please find deltaE The answer is not 6.336*10^9, 0.407 *10^10 , 7.05*10^9 , 1.56*10^10 It is something different, all of the above are wrong.
The semimajor axis of Mars orbit is about 1.52 astronomical units (au), where an au is the Earth's average distance from the Sun, meaning the semimajor axis of Earth's orbit is 1 au. To go from Earth to Mars and use the least energy from rocket fuel, the orbit has a semimajor axis of 1.26 au and an eccentricity of about 0.21. Starting at Earth's orbit, to follow this path we give the spacecraft an orbital velocity of 40 km/s. ...
2. To get from Earth to Saturn as economically and quickly as possible, spacecraft make use of an elliptical transfer trajectory called the Hohmann transfer orbit. As shown in the diagram, below, Hohmann transfer facilitates a smooth transition between two planetary bodies in roughly circular orbits located on the same plane. For our solar system, this plane is known as the ecliptic. Using data you can find online for the orbits of Earth, Saturn and the Sun and assuming that...
A probe has been launched vertically from the surface of Mars. At time t 0, it has reached a height of y1,0 320 m, and is moving upward at vy10 80 m/s when its engines cut out. At the same moment, the mother ship is y20 1500 m from the Martian surface, moving down directly toward the probe at 25 m/s and slowing down at the rate of 0.80 m/s2. On the surface of Mars, the gravitational acceleration is gMars-3.72...

Tethers are long dangling wires that use the velocity of a spacecraft through the Earth's magnetic field to generate electrical power. Alternatively, electrical currents pushed through the tether might be used to change the spacecraft velocity for either propulsion or for braking and reentry. Several 'space tether experiments have been flown to investigate the possible use if Faraday's law for power generation and/or propulsion. Examples are the 1996 joint US/Italy effort to deploy a 20 km tether from one of...
