A minimum energy transfer orbit is a hohmann transfer orbit. A hohmann transfer orbit requires the smallest amount of delta V as the first burn is at periapsis (closes point to body being orbited) and the second burn is at apoapsis. For a planetary transfer the minimum energy launch windows occur at intervals of the target planets synodic period in relation to the departure planet.
What else can I help you with?
Which orbit has the most energy?
If you're talking about valence shells, it would be the first. The closest one to the nucleus of an atom has the most amount of POTENTIAL energy. It requires some sort of chemical or magnetic action to get the energy.
How do you launch a satellite?
Normally satellites are placed on top of rockets and carried into space, then they are released/pushed out of the rocket once it reaches space. It is first pushed out (injected) into an orbit close to earth called a "transfer orbit," meaning an orbit used to move it from the release location to the primary/intended orbit. Sometimes a booster motor is used to move it into the transfer orbit. After the transfer orbit moves it to the correct location another motor changes it's direction/motion into the final/primary orbit. Sometimes a satellite is carried into space by the Space Shuttle, and then released. After that it moves into a transfer orbit that carries it to the final orbit like other satellites.
What is the minimum number of satellites needed to cover the whole Earth?
The absolute minimum number is for momentary complete cover is 4 in a triangular prism shape, but these will not stay in the right positions as they are not in a geostationary orbit. 3 in geostationary orbit will give very bad and failing coverage at the poles and at the outer edge of their footprint 6, 3 in polar orbit and 3 in geostationary orbit will help, but for a practical coverage 4 in geostationary orbit and 4 in polar orbit will be more practical
What is the optimal trajectory for a spacecraft to perform a Hohmann transfer to Jupiter?
The optimal trajectory for a spacecraft to perform a Hohmann transfer to Jupiter involves launching the spacecraft from Earth at a specific time and angle to intersect with Jupiter's orbit. This transfer orbit minimizes fuel usage and travel time by taking advantage of the gravitational pull of both Earth and Jupiter. The spacecraft will follow an elliptical path, with a periapsis at Earth's orbit and an apoapsis at Jupiter's orbit, allowing it to rendezvous with Jupiter efficiently.
What two things does the sun provide for earth?
Location (orbit) and energy.
What does circular orbit motion refer to?
water particals and the transfer of energy
Is the transfer of energy called?
The transfer of energy is called Energy Transfer
The potential energy of a satellite in an elliptical orbit is?
The total energy of a satellite doesn't change. At its closest approach to the planet, it has the most kinetic energy and the least potential, whereas at its furthest retreat from the planet, it has the least kinetic energy and the most potential. But their sum ... the satellite's total mechanical energy ... is always the same. (It may gain heat energy when the sun is shining directly on it, and lose it when it's in the planet's cold shadow, but neither of those changes affects its orbit.)
Is electron emits energy when it revolves in quantized orbit?
No. A quantized orbit means the energy is locked in as a constant. It would have to switch to a different orbit to emit energy.
What is the term for the transfer of energy between systems?
The term for the transfer of energy between systems is called "energy transfer."
What is the radiation transfer of energy by?
what is the transfer of thermal energy by radiation
What is radiation is the transfer of energy?
what is the transfer of thermal energy by radiation
What is the difference between a local energy minimum and a global energy minimum in the context of energy optimization?
In energy optimization, a local energy minimum is a point where the energy is lower than in its immediate surroundings, but not necessarily the lowest overall. A global energy minimum is the point with the lowest energy value in the entire system. It is important to find the global minimum to achieve the most efficient energy optimization.
Which type energy transfer is occurring at each lettered area?
Letter A: Mechanical energy transfer Letter B: Thermal energy transfer Letter C: Electrical energy transfer
Why is transfer of electron from 2s subshell to 1s subshell not possible?
Transfer of an electron from a higher energy orbit (2s) to a lower energy orbit (1s) is not possible because it would violate the energy conservation principle. Electrons naturally occupy the lowest available energy levels in an atom, following the Aufbau principle. This means electrons will only move to higher energy levels if they absorb energy, not by transferring between lower and higher energy levels.
Where earth needs to be in its orbit at launch in order to make the trip to Saturn successful?
The earth needs to be at a point in its orbit from which the Hohmann transfer orbit between earth and the orbit of Saturnrequiring the least launch energy terminates at the point where Saturn will be when the vehicle gets there.You might want to read that again, slowly. That's as plain as I know how to say it.
What energies can thermal energy transfer into?
one energy that thermal energy can transfer into is radiation energy. It can transfer into that because of the electromagnetic waves.
