    What is the eccentricity of an orbit such that Vp = 2Va?

    Summary:: A question on a recent exam was, "At what eccentricity does an orbit experience a velocity at periapsis that is twice the velocity an apoapsis?" I don't know why the provided solution is correct. On a recent exam, one of the questions was "At what eccentricity does an orbit...
