Which source of gravity is maintaining all four satellites around the earth?

Satellites of the Earth are held in their orbits by the Earth's gravity. That includes the Moon and all the artificial satellites etc. that are up there.


Is there gravity where satellites are at?

Yes there are enough gravitational forces to keep the satellites orbiting earth.


What causes a satellites to be pulled to earth?

Gravity.


How do you beat gravity on Earth?

To overcome gravity, you must reach "Escape Velocity" to overcome gravity and escape a planet's orbit.


Are satellites orbiting earths gravity?

No. They orbit Earth; and the reason they orbit is because of gravity.


Are all the spacecrafts that go to moon called satellites?

No - satellites do not go to the moon. Satellites orbit planets/moons/objects with gravity in space.


What pulls satellites towards the center of the earth?

Gravity .


What makes satellites stay in orbit?

Gravity and inertia.


You say that the escape velocity is the one required to escape the earth's gravitational speed then we say the satellites stay in orbits because of the earth's gravitational speed how does that ha?

Satellites are traveling at less than escape velocity. (roughly, orbital velocity is about 7 tenths of escape).


How does a satellites move in space when its vacuum?

well space is like a vacuum you cant escape it and sound wave do not travel in space but space isn't literally a vacuum so they move by rockets and the gravity of earth


How are the satellites able to float in mid air?

they do not float. They are spinning with a certain velocity. First of all the satellites when launched are propelled through air at a speed equal or greater than its escape velocity.They then have a certain linear velocity but are able to maintain a lunar synchronous orbit because of the earth's gravity.


How does gravity help satellites orbit earth?
