Question 4 (a) Derive formula for the eccentricity vector. [3 marks] Relative to a non-rotating Earth-centred Cartesian coordinate system, the position and velocity vectors of a spacecraft are r = 21,522i - 17,573j + 21,522k (km) v = 1801i + 1100j + 1801k (m/s) Calculate: (b) the orbit eccentricity; [4 Marks]
