Assume the space shuttle is in a circular orbit about earth with its nose pointing forward. the rocket motors are fired for a few moments. you would expect the shuttle to speed up. show that, instead, it actually rises to a higher orbit and slows down. (this behavior is called the "satellite paradox.")
