A spacecraft drifts through space at a constant velocity

Reference no: EM13557196

A spacecraft drifts through space at a constant velocity. Itthen turns on a jet that provides a constant force in the direction perpendicular to the direction of its initial velocity. What is the shape of the trajectory that the space craft follows after the jet turns on?
