Straight toward the center of mass of whatever body it's orbiting. If
the orbit happens to be circular, then that's the center of the circle.
Of course. Anything you toss with your hand has constant acceleration after you toss it ... the acceleration of gravity, directed downward. If you toss it upward, it starts out with upward velocity, which reverses and eventually becomes downward velocity.
both the magnitudes and the directions of the initial and final velocities are the same.
A rock has the same constant acceleration from the moment it leaves your hand until the moment it hits the ground. It doesn't matter whether you dropped it or threw it, or in what direction it left you. The acceleration is 9.8 meters (32.2 feet) per second2 directed downwards. That's the acceleration of gravity on earth. As you asked, let's say you tossed it straight upwards. A tiny instant before it reaches the exact top, it has a small upward speed. A tiny instant after it passes the exact top, it has a small downward speed. During that tiny space of time, its upward speed decreases and its downward speed increases. That's a downward acceleration in anybody's book.
Force=mass*acceleration 80N=10kg*acceleration 80N/10kg=acceleration 8m/s2=acceleration The acceleration is 8m/s2.
Satellite pictures are taken through the satellite and sent to Earth via satellite waves.
The acceleration of a satellite is directed inward, towards the center of the orbit.
toward the center of the circle this is to my online bbys (E2020 :)) xD love ya ~kraziekatt4life♥
When it is closest to the planet.One of the components of the acceleration, the normal acceleration, is equal to v2/r, where v is the satellite's speed and r is the radius of the current orbit followed by the satellite. So, the smaller the radius, the higher the acceleration.
Central acceleration is the acceleration placed on the center of a satellite that holds it in elliptical orbit. Central acceleration is more commonly known as centripetal acceleration.
yes, this ADG helps the satellite to orbit earth. This is the centripital force
a satellite in orbit; it is moving at constant speed but is accelerating outward in circular acceleration, balanced by gravity acceleration (centripetal force).
WikiAnswers cannot support diagrams - sorry. A satellite around the Earth will have an elliptical or (in some cases) a circular orbit. The satellite is constantly accelerating towards the Earth due to the gravity between the Earth and the satellite. However, because of the satellite's tangential velocity, it stays at a relatively constant distance from the Earth.
When an object is moving upwards, its velocity is directed upwards. If the object is near the Earth or any other planet, then its acceleration is directed downwards, which also means that its upward velocity is decreasing.
Yes, both are directed downward.
The center of the Earth.
The centripetal acceleration is v2/r, directed toward the center of the circle..
No, only a force direct West can balance a force directed East.
