Well, since earth is pulled up by a gravitational force the sattelite could do the same and basetly float. An example of this is a rocket. If it wasnt for fuel to help it push against the atmosphere and gravity outside earth it would be floating around. That's the opposite for a sattelite. if not satified ask again.

What is the weight of a satellite in orbit?

Technically, a satellite in free-fall (and orbit is a special case of "free-fall") is effectively weightless. What we call weight is the force of the RESISTANCE to gravity; I "weigh" 220 pounds because I an standing on the Earth. The satellite has its own mass, and this can be anything from "tiny" to "enormous".

What happens when any object is dropped from a satellite?

When an object is dropped from a satellite in orbit around Earth, it will continue orbiting Earth at the same speed and direction as the satellite. From the perspective of someone on the satellite, the object will appear to float next to them due to being in free fall. However, once the object encounters Earth's atmosphere, it will experience drag and eventually fall towards Earth.
