Two spacecraft of masses m and m are flying with their engines off in the gravitational field of a star of mass M that is much larger than masses of the spacecraft Speeds of the spacecraft at great distances from the star are equal to U and respectively After passage around the star when the spacecraft are again at great distances from the star the spacecraft move with speeds u and U perpendicular to their initial directions of motion If during passage around the star the minimum distance of the first spacecraft from the star is r what is the minimum distance of the second spacecraft from the star
