Q.

A space vehicle moving in a circular orbit of radius r1transfer to a larger circular orbit of radius r2 by means of an elliptical path between A and B. The transfer is accomplished by a burst of speed VA at A and a second burst of speed  ΔVB at B. Then match the following : (R is the radius of the earth, g is the acceleration due to gravity on the surface of the earth, neglect the spin rotation of the earth)

Detailed Solution

 g=GMR2  (A) For circular orbit of radius r1

V1=GMr1V1=Rgr1

Question Image

 

 

 

 

 

From earth, for elliptical orbit A is perihelion
and B is aphelion

From LCAM ,mVAr1=mVBr2

VAr1=VBr2(1)

Apply LCE, (T.E)A=(T.E)B

GMmr1+12mVA2=GMmr2+12mVB2....... (2)

Solving (1) and (2)

VA=2GMr2r1r1+r2&VB=2GMr1r2r1+r2

VA=R2gr2r1r1+r2&VB=R2gr1r2r1+r2

for circular orbit of radius

r2V2=GMr2=Rgr2

The increment in the velocity is

ΔV=V2VB=Rgr2R2gr1r2r1+r2

ΔV=Rgr212r1r1+r2
