It is discovered that "Neptune" parameter p is aligned with line of sight! Eccentricity 0.3. and periastron to viewer's left, heading to the right. The radial distance at "p" or r(p) in AUS? A.) 1.77 B) 1.87 C.) 1.97 D.) 2.07 E.) 2.47 Answer: 2.9 What is Neptune's projected transit velocity (km/sec)? Hints: The conic, the definition of p and the flight path angle in rv cos gamma = h and energy equation are all involved. Find the radius in AUS at p, the velocity and h with Rp Vp = Ra Va.. %3D A.)13.81 B.) 14.45 C.) 15.02 E) 16.45 E.) 22.8 Answer: It is discovered that "Neptune" parameter p is aligned with line of sight!
