A spacecraft with a mass of 800 kg is traveling in a circular orbit 6000 km above the earth. It is desired to change the orbit to an elliptical one with a perigee altitude of 3000 km as shown. The transition is made by firing the retro-engine at A with a reverse thrust of 2000 N. Calculate the required time t for the engine to be activated.
