Object further away from gravitation center has higher potential energy. Therefore work(energy expense) must be done to put it there.

Astronomically speaking, an object that orbits a larger object is a satellite. I.E. the moon is the earth's satellit


Why is a satellite?

It orbits a larger body, the definition of a satellite.


Why are there few third level consumers?

The energy transferred from each tier of the energy pyramid gradually decreases the higher up you go because as energy is being transferred, larger and/or higher consuming organisms are using up more energy. Again, this increases the higher up you go.


How is convection transferred?

Convection is transferred by the larger-scale motion of currents in the fluid.

What is an object that orbits a larger object?

An astronomical object that moves (revolves) around a larger object is called a satellite. A natural satellite of a planet is called a moon.


What are three ways energy can be transferred?

Three examples:1) Anything falling under gravity. Gravitational potential energy is being transferred into kinetic energy, i.e. speed.2) In a turbine. Moving the rotors round on a turbine turns kinetic into electric energy.3) Electric cooking hobs. The electrical energy is dissipated to release thermal energy (heats up).


Saturn's most important satellite?

Titan, is Saturn's largest moon or satellite. Titan is 50% larger than the Earth's satellite, the Moon. It also has a larger volume than the planet Mercury. Dutch astronomer,?æ Christiaan Hudgens discovered the satellite in 1655.


What is the relationship between the frequency of a wave and the amount of enery transferred by the wave?

Potentially the two have an inverse relationship--a lower-frequency wave will carry more energy because it's larger. But it doesn't have to be that way; the waves of a satellite TV transmitter that's throwing a couple thousand watts at 6500MHz are going to transfer far more energy than the waves of Joe Trucker and his 4-watt 27MHz CB radio.
