Consider a Hohmann transfer from a circular parking orbit around Earth at 200 km altitude, to the Moon (distance center of mass Earth – center of mass Moon is 384,000 km; you can ignore the size of the Moon and the altitude of the target orbit around the Moon). The Moon orbits Earth in a circular orbit as well. Both orbits (parking,Moon) are coplanar. What is the velocity of the Moon,and what is the velocity of the satellite when reaching the apocenter of this Hohmann transfer?
Answer was 1.02, 0.19 km/s respectively. I would like to know how to come up with this answer.
*I want explanation and proper working steps.
For any further doubt, feel free to comment in comment section. And, please give your rating i really need that one..
Thanks!!!
