    Thank you! It makes sense now :)

    Relationship between characteristic energy and delta-v

    Ok, so when I'm looking at the plots and it shows different curves of the characteristic energy is that the energy needed getting the craft from Earth orbit into one that will coincide with Mars

    Relationship between characteristic energy and delta-v

    Firstly, apologies if this is in the wrong thread. I'm currently writing a presentation on the physics of getting a spacecraft from Earth to Mars in the near future. In my research I've come up against Porkchop plots which seem to plot contours of equal characteristic energy so you can find...

    What is the Locus of Points for 2π|z - 1| = Arg(z - 1) in an Argand Diagram?

    Ah ok got you now :) thank you!

    What is the Locus of Points for 2π|z - 1| = Arg(z - 1) in an Argand Diagram?

    So that means that ##2\pi r=\theta## which is a spiral beginning at (0,0) so to get the answer is it just $$2\pi (r-1)=\theta$$ Thanks!

    What is the Locus of Points for 2π|z - 1| = Arg(z - 1) in an Argand Diagram?

    Homework Statement Find the locus of points which satisfy 2π*|z −1| = Arg(z − 1) where |z −1| ≤ 2. Homework Equations n/a The Attempt at a Solution I know that |z-1| ≤ 2 is the 'inside' bits of a circle center (1,0) with a radius 2 After that I get confused surely with |z-1|≤2 then...
