Hello. I assumed the z axis. I chose it randomly, since it's not stated anywhere which one shall I take. By the way, love your answer. It's very detailed.
I took the same formula as in the picture attached (it's a similar problem). But now that you made the analysis it makes more sense. It was...
Answering your questions:
[Does this mean there are 4 thrusters on each face of the cube? What direction are they pointing? Do they operate as 2 pairs on each face, to give clockwise or anticlockwise motion about the face’s principle axis? Or maybe their directions can be adjusted.]
Imagine a...
You are so right. Thank you for saying this kidnly. Please check the reply 'Rewritten problem' with orange letters in the answers. It may help you more. Thank you.
Thank you for your feedback. You are right. Please check the reply 'Rewritten problem' with orange letters in the answers. It may help you more. Thank you.
The formulas are given on slides by the professor. I have corrected the moltiplication process a bit. Please check the reply 'Rewritten problem' with orange letters in the answers. It may help you more. All the variables are there, and you are so right to remind me this. Thank you.
The fact is that i don't know. That's why I'm calculating time of burn. Please check the reply 'Rewritten problem' with orange letters in the answers. It may help you more. Thank you.
Rewritten problem:
Problem: You have a spacecraft the size of a cube (2x2x2 m3, m=3000 kg. It has 24 thrusters (2N each) and one main engine. The main engine is perpendicular to one of the faces of the cube and each has 4 attitude thrusters.
For preparing your spacecraft for maneuvers when...
Hello. I can't seem to find an edit button, so I can make my question more understanding. That's the reason I posted the other one (plus I didn't know it was moved here in homework threads). Thank you.
P. S: would it be better if I deleted this and wrote it again? Or no?
