In the following problems, except where otherwise indicated, assume that the radius of the earth is 6378 km, the earth's mass is 5.976(1024) kg, the mass of the sun is 1.99(1030) kg, and the gravitational constant is G = 66.73(10−12)m3/(kg • s2).

A satellite S travels in a circular orbit around the earth. A rocket is located at the apogee of its elliptical orbit for which e = 0.58. Determine the sudden change in speed that must occur at A so that the rocket can enter the satellite’s orbit while in free flight along the blue elliptical trajectory. When it arrives at B, determine the sudden adjustment in speed that must be given to the rocket in order to maintain the circular orbit.
