Consider a satellite around Earth in an elliptic orbit. At a point in its orbit, the radius (in km) from the
center of the Earth is varying with time as r(t) = 7000 - 0.54 t (with t in seconds). The angular rate is
0 (t) = 1.02 x 10³ rad/s. What is the magnitude of acceleration (in m/s²) at t = 0.
8.11 Estimate the total delta-v requirement for a Hohmann transfer from earth to Mercury, assuming a
150-km-altitude circular parking orbit at earth and a 150-km circular capture orbit at Mercury.
Furthermore, assume that the planets have coplanar circular orbits with radii equal to the
semimajor axes listed in Table A.1.
{Ans.: 13.08 km/s}
A satellite is to travel from the Earth to Mars using a Hohmann transfer.
1. Calculate the semi-major axis of the transfer orbit. Using the Vis-Viva equation compute the
heliocentric velocity of the satellite as it reaches Mars.
2. The spacecraft is adjusted so that it will pass within $300$ $km$ of
the surface of Mars just behind of it in its orbit. Calculate the
eccentricity of the hyperbolic passage and hence the half turn angle
$\delta$. **[20 points]**
3. The approach of the spacecraft is on the sunward side of Mars. Compute the heliocentric
velocity of the spacecraft when it exits Mars' sphere of influence.
4. A Hohmann transfer requires a long transfer time. Propose a method to reduce the transfer
time to reach Mars and outline the procedure that you would use to compute the radial and
transverse velocity at Mars arrival.

- 37. The International Space Station (ISS), mass 419000 kg, orbits Earth at altitude 390 km. However, over the course of several months its altitude will “decay” and decrease by 10 km due to drag with Earth’s atmosphere. Rocket thrusters firing continuously for 2.0 orbits are used to boost the ISS back to the correct orbit. (a) Determine the “delta-v” (change in speed) associated with an increase in altitude of 10 km (assuming circular orbits at each altitude). (b) Determine the amount of thrust necessary for the boost – you can treat the situation like pushing an object up a ramp that is 10 km high and two orbits long (ignore drag).arrow_forwardA skydiver jumps from a height of 4000 m.
