An Apollo spacecraft describes a circular orbit with a 2414 km radius around the moon with a velocity of 5133 km/h. In order to transfer it to a smaller circular orbit with a 1930 km radius, the spacecraft is first placed on an elliptical path AB by reducing its velocity to 4827 km/h as it passes through A. Determine (a) the velocity of the spacecraft as it approaches B on the elliptic path, (b) the value to which its velocity...
