The force of gravity will change the satellites direction, and therefore its velocity.
If the velocity of the satellite is always perpendicular to the force of gravity, then the eccentricity of the orbit is zero, and it's perfectly circular.
GRAVITY!A2. Centripetal force. The velocity of the satellite around the earth causes centripetal, force which balances with the gravity, holding it in a circular orbit around the earth.
Centripetal force wants to move something towards the centre. So in a satellites case that would be the Gravity of the Earth. If you had a rock tied to a string you were spinning around, the Centripetal Force would be the tension in the string acting towards the centre.
Momentum is not a force.The only major force acting on a satellite is the gravitational attraction of the Earth (assuming it happens to go around the Earth).

The force of gravity, between Earth and the satellite.

gravity
The mutual gravitational attraction between the satellite's mass and the earth's mass. Short answer: The force of gravity.
Buoyant force.
There is only one main force acting on a satellite when it is in orbit, and that is the gravitational force.
yes, this ADG helps the satellite to orbit earth. This is the centripital force
No; gravity will continue acting on your body. If there was no force acting on your body while in space (let's say an orbiting satellite), the satellite would fly out of Earth's orbit and just wander off forever, but that doesn't happen - so gravity has to be acting on the satellite and your body as well!
Satellites operate through the use of gravity because the force of gravity on the satellite results in circular motion around the earth or any other celestial body, and if that force was too big it would cause the satellite to come crashing down and if it were too small the satellite would just go flying off into space
