Chapter 13, Problem 13.103(choose chapter or problem)
A spacecraft traveling along a parabolic path toward the planet Jupiter is expected to reach point A with a velocity \(v_{A}\) of magnitude 26.9 km/s. Its engines will then be fired to slow it down, placing it into an elliptic orbit which will bring it to within \(100 \times 10^{3} \ \mathrm{km}\) of Jupiter. Determine the decrease in speed \(\Delta v\) at point A which will place the spacecraft into the required orbit. The mass of Jupiter is 319 times the mass of the earth.
