Why aren't satellites pulled to earth by gravity?
Satellites aren't pulled to Earth by gravity because they are in a state of free fall, traveling at a high tangential speed. This speed allows them to continuously "fall" around the Earth instead of directly towards it. The balance between their forward motion and the pull of gravity creates a stable orbit, keeping them at a consistent altitude rather than crashing back to the surface.
What causes a satellites to be pulled to earth?
Gravity.
Do all objects fall towards the center of the earth?
Yes, all objects on or near Earth's surface fall towards the center of the Earth due to the force of gravity acting upon them. This is why objects dropped from a height fall downwards.
What force acts to pull natural and artificial satellites to earth?
Gravity. A natural satellite aka asteroid, then meteor, then meteorite all get pulled to Earth through gravity. With artificial sattelites it's tge same thing, gravity. The difference is we launch our satellites to the perfect zone around the planet where they become trapped in orbit around us. Sometimes things occur that bump these satellites out of their orbit and gravity takes over, pulling the satellite back to the surface.
The moon has no gravity but the rocket lands on it How?
The moon does have gravity, just less than Earth's. When a rocket lands on the moon, it is pulled towards the moon's surface by its gravity, similar to how objects are pulled towards Earth. The rocket's engines are used to slow down its descent and land safely on the moon's surface.
Does earths gravity pulls objects toward its center?
Yes, Earth's gravity pulls objects towards its center. The force of gravity between Earth and objects on or near its surface causes everything to be pulled towards the center of the planet.
Why are planes pulled toward water?
They aren't. They are pulled towards the center of the earth, as are all objects on the surface of the earth.
Why aren't satellites pulled to earth by gravity?
Satellites aren't pulled to Earth by gravity because they are in a state of free fall, traveling at a high tangential speed. This speed allows them to continuously "fall" around the Earth instead of directly towards it. The balance between their forward motion and the pull of gravity creates a stable orbit, keeping them at a consistent altitude rather than crashing back to the surface.
How fast are you pulled towards the Earth's surface?
pulled means that we are attracted toward the earth which is gravity an that is 9.8 metre per second square
What causes a satellites to be pulled to earth?
Gravity.
True or false particles of air are pulled toward earth's surface by the force of gravity?
True. Air particles are pulled towards Earth's surface by the force of gravity, which creates atmospheric pressure.
Everything on earth is pulled downward toward the center by what?
Everything on Earth is pulled downward towards the center by gravity, a force which arises from the mass of the Earth. This force keeps objects grounded and causes them to fall towards the surface when dropped.
How does gravity affect the earths surface?
It makes things weigh more or less, depending on the surface gravity.
The earths atmosphere came from where?
Gravity pulled it in.
What happens to objects that enter the earths atmosphere?
the objects which enter the earths atmosphere are being pulled down towards the earths surface due to the earths gravity. And so it leads to falling falling of large objects from the space on the surface of the earth.
Are satellites in high earth orbit pulled to earth by gravity?
yes.
Do all objects fall towards the center of the earth?
Yes, all objects on or near Earth's surface fall towards the center of the Earth due to the force of gravity acting upon them. This is why objects dropped from a height fall downwards.
