1. what is delta v
2. what is a periapsis
3. what is an apoapsis
4. what is a geosynchronus orbit
5. what is a hohmann transfer intercept
6. what is the increase phase rate manuever


if u can answer these

1.In astrodynamics a Δv or delta-v (literally "change in velocity") is a measure of the amount of "effort" that is needed to change from one trajectory to another by making an orbital maneuver. It is a scalar that has the units of speed.

2.An apsis (Greek ἁψίς, gen. ἁψίδος), plural apsides (/ˈæpsɨdiːz/; Greek: ἁψίδες), is a point of greatest or least distance of a body in an elliptic orbit about a larger body.

3.^^^Up there^^^

4.A geosynchronous orbit (sometimes abbreviated GSO) is an orbit around the Earth with an orbital period of one sidereal day (approximately 23 hours 56 minutes and 4 seconds), matching the Earth's sidereal rotation period.

5.To launch a spacecraft from Earth to an outer planet such as Mars using the least propellant possible, first consider that the spacecraft is already in solar orbit as it sits on the launch pad. This existing solar orbit must be adjusted to cause it to take the spacecraft to Mars: The desired orbit's perihelion (closest approach to the sun) will be at the distance of Earth's orbit, and the aphelion (farthest distance from the sun) will be at the distance of Mars' orbit. This is called a Hohmann Transfer orbit.

6.The Valsalva maneuver or Valsalva manoeuvre is performed by moderately forceful attempted exhalation against a closed airway.

wikipedia alert


and i think you got one wrong

increasing the phase rate is like going to a higher orbit so a target can catch up with you



the hohmann transfer takes place directly after where you break that orbit and close in on your target

yo yo yo, im gonna major in aerospace engineering. i got this.

1. delta v is change in velocity, aka how much it takes to execute a maneuver.

2. periapsis is the point in an orbit where an object is closest to what its orbiting.

3. opposite of periapsis.

4. geosynchronous orbit is where an object orbits at an altitude where it moves with the surface of the body its orbiting.

5. hohmann transfer is the one where you increase your apoapsis by burning prograde. then, once you reach your new apoapsis, you burn prograde once again to circularize.

6. imma be honest i havent heard of one with that exact name.
