Mass (not including propulsion system): 1,000kg Total required v for lifetime: 500 m/s Orbital Altitude: 600 km (LEO) Orbiting Earth 1. If, instead, the propulsion system is a Hall thruster system with 1,500s Isp, 50 mN thrust, 750 W input power, a thruster mass of 2kg, a power system mass of 10 kg, and a tank mass of 3 kg. How much propellant mass is required to meet the mission v requirement
