I know there are some big-brain math folks out here...
So, you have a spaceship which burned at max. 2G acceleration for a period of 30 minutes, then maintaining that velocity...If we take-off in a ship capable of 5G acceleration, how long do we need to burn at 5G acceleration, before decelerating (or as my old Physics professor preferred, "applied negative acceleration")? And moreover, when would we catch-up or more precisely maintain an exact velocity with the other ship for the purpose of boarding?
I appreciate any and all responses!
