Orbital mechanics - falling body
I think that the problem is not as simple to just account for the Earth's gravitational acceleration, change in h and change in the k component of the velocity vector, that's why I'm asking.- dreamer_asot

Orbital mechanics - falling body
Hello, my question id the following: when using Tsiolkovsky's equations to determine the velocity of a body after certain period of time, when the engine of a (space)craft is running, life is simple. But how do you calculate the falling rate of an object that is constantly falling, and then...- dreamer_asot

Vector Problem: Solving Displacement & Speed of Contact
Hello, my problem is attached as a picture. Could you give me some guidelines on how to approach the problem? (i know the given formulas are derived using QM (probably), and I'm not "scared" from them, i just need to know where to do a cross or a dot product, and maybe how to approach the last...- dreamer_asot
