Parameter of Orbit Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Parameter of Orbit = Angular Momentum of Orbit^2/Standard Gravitational Parameter
p = h^2/μ_std
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Parameter of Orbit - (Measured in Meter) - Parameter of Orbit is defined as the half of chord length through the center of attraction perpendicular to the apse line.
Angular Momentum of Orbit - (Measured in Squaer Meter per Second) - Angular Momentum of Orbit is a fundamental physical quantity that characterizes the rotational motion of an object in orbit around a celestial body, such as a planet or a star.
Standard Gravitational Parameter - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Square Second) - The Standard Gravitational Parameter of a celestial body is the product of the gravitational constant G and the mass M of the bodies.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Angular Momentum of Orbit: 65611 Square Kilometer per Second --> 65611000000 Squaer Meter per Second (Check conversion here)
Standard Gravitational Parameter: 398000000000000 Cubic Meter per Square Second --> 398000000000000 Cubic Meter per Square Second No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

p = h^2/μ_std --> 65611000000^2/398000000000000

Evaluating ... ...
