6 92 A meteorite approaching a planet of mass M in the straight line passing through the centre of the planet collides with an automatic space station orbiting the planet in the circular trajectory of radius R The mass of the station is ten times as large as the mass the meteorites As a result of collision the meteorite sticks in the station which goes over to a new orbit with the minimum distance R 2 from the planet Determine the velocity u of the meteorite before the collision
