Is the critical velocity equal to orbital velocity of satellite?

Balance of force of gravity by centripetal forceYes, for any given orbital radius (r) only one velocity will give stable orbit, this is called the critical velocity.Pick your orbital radius and satellite mass (m)Use Gmm / r2 to calculate gravitational force (f),then find velocity from : v = sq root ( (r * f ) / m)


The velocity a rocket must reach to establish an orbit around earth is called?

The velocity a rocket must reach to establish an orbit around the Earth is called orbital velocity. It is the speed required for an object to overcome gravitational pull and maintain a stable orbit around the planet. The orbital velocity depends on the altitude of the orbit and follows Kepler's laws of planetary motion.


The speed that must be reached by a satellite or spacecraft for it to go into orbit is called?

Escape velocity


Draw a diagram showing the motion of a satellite around Earth is the satellite accelerating?

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.


Why is the moon called the satellite of the earth?

The moon is called a satellite of earth because it revolves around the earth


What is the name of the satellite which revolves around the Earth?

The satellite that revolves around the Earth is called the Moon.


What will happen if a satellite has velocity which is more than orbital vellocity but less than escape velocity?

If a satellite somehow acquires too much velocity for the orbit it's in, it moves to an orbit for which that velocity is just right. That's how artificial satellites are placed into the desired orbit ... engines are fired to give them the velocity that's correct for the desired orbit, and that's where they go.


What is the path of a planet or a satellite called?

A satellite is a body in orbit around another lager body. A probe is a machine sent to a specific place or specific course in space. Comment: That doesn't seem to answer the question. The curved path that a satellite follows is either a circle or an ellipse


What is an object that revolves around the planet?

Moons and planetary rings can revolve around a planet.A satellite or moon.A satellite or if it's big enough a moon


Why is the moon called a satellite of earth?

A satellite is an object that orbits around a planet or body in space. There are artificial satellites and natural satellites. An artificial satellite is an object, like a space station, that has been set into orbit around a planet by humans. A natural satellite naturally finds its way into close orbit around a planet, like the moon naturally orbits the Earth.


Any human made object in orbit around the body in space is called a?

An artificial satellite.


What is a body in orbit around a planet called?

A body in orbit around a planet is called a satellite.
