Calculate the delta V for the arrival at the LaGrange point

Reference no: EM13536899

I am working on a project where we need to find an optimal transfer for a spacecraft from LEO to the L4 LaGrange point in the Earth-Moon system. In order to calculate the delta V for the arrival at the LaGrange point, we need to know the "velocity" of the LaGrange point as the moon orbits the Earth. How would you calculate this velocity (in 3-D)?

Lorentz transformation to rederive the time-dilation formula : Use the Lorentz transformation to rederive the time-dilation formula. To do this you must define two events which occur at the same location in S'.

What is the angle with respect the x-axis as measured : A meter stick is at rest in a frame S', which is traveling with a speed of V=0.8c with respect to a frame S. The stick makes an angle of 60 degrees with respect to the x-axis as measured by an observer in S'. What is its length and what is the angle ..

How many muons will it register in one hour : The muons created by cosmic rays in the upper atmosphere rain down uniformly on the earth's surface, although some of them decay on the way down, with a half-life of about 1.5?s (measured in their rest frame).

What is the percent difference : A satellite travels at about 8000m/s. What is the factor γ for this speed? As observed from the ground, by how much would a clock traveling at this speed differ from a ground based clock after one hour (as measured by the latter)? What is the percent..

Spring is initially at rest in its equilibrium position : A mass of 5.0 kg is attached to one end of a spring with a spring constant 80 N/m. The other end is attached to a rigid wall. The spring is initially at rest in its equilibrium position, then a force of 100 N pulls the mass away from the wall, str..
