PAR T - B (16 Marks) UNIT- 1

1. Describe the terms of Earth orbiting satellites.

*Apogee: The point farthest from earth.

*Perigee: The point closest approach to earth

*Ascending node: The point where the orbit crosses the equatorial plane going from south to north.

*Descending node: The point where the orbit crosses the equatorial plane going from north to south.

*Line of nodes: The line joining the ascending & descending node through the center of the

earth.

*Line of apsides: The line joining the perigee & apogee through the center of the earth.

*Inclination: The angle between the orbital plane & the earth’ s equatorial plane.

*Prograde orbit: An orbit in which the satellite moves in the same direction as the earth’ s

rotation.

*Retrograde orbit: An orbit in which the satellite moves in a direction counter to the

earth’ s rotation.

*Argument of perigee: The angle from ascending node to perigee, measured in the orbital plane

at the earth’ s center in the direction of satellite motion.

2. Explain the orbital p lane. Draw it neat sketch i) Diagram:

ii) Explanation:

*In the orbital plane, the position vector ‘r’ & the velocity vector ‘v’ specify the motion

of satellite.

R=a(1-e2)/1+ecosv

*Mean anomaly M at time t is found

M=n (t-T) VºM+2esinM+5/4e2sin2M.

3. Explain the Orbital perturbations.

Explanation:

*Effect of non-spherical earth

*Atmospheric drag
