An unmanned space probe of mass m and speed v 2 km s

An unmanned space probe of mass m and speed v 2 km s relative to the Sun approaches the planet Jupiter of mass M m and speed V relative to the Sun as shown in the figure The spacecraft rounds the planet and departs in the opposite direction The mass of Jupiter is very much greater than the mass of the spacecraft M m and it orbits the sun at a distance of 59 AU where I AU is the orbital radius of the earth around the sun 1 AU 1 5x 10 km 1 carth year 107 s nearly The speed of the space probe after it leaves the solar system relative the sun is nearly 20 n km s where n is an integer Find the value of n M
