Abstract

In this paper the motion of a projectile around the earth under the influence of the gravitational attraction of the earth and a thrust is discussed. The orbit of the projectile and its velocity along the orbit are found in two cases, namely when the thrust is suddenly applied to the projectile, and when it is gradually applied. The types of the Keplerian orbit, when the thrust is suddenly removed, are also discussed.
