What force keeps satellite in orbit around the Earth?
There is only one main force acting on a satellite when it is in orbit, and that is the gravitational force.
If action is equal to reaction why isn't the earth pulled into orbit around the communication satellite?
The earth is pulled by the satellite, but because the gravitational force of the satellite is so small and the Earth is so big the effect is negligable.
A satellite in a low earth orbit moving faster than a satellite in a geosynchronous orbit?
YES As height increases, speed of satellite decreases.
What is an equatorial satellite?
A satellite in an equatorial orbit flies along the plane of the Earth's equator. If an orbit does not lie at an equatorial orbit, then it will not remain at a fixed state.
What is repitivity and revisit of satellite orbit?
The repetitivity and revisit of satellite orbit refers to the time elapsed between observations of the same point on earth by a satellite. It usually depends with the target location, the orbit of the satellite and the swath of the sensor.
What causes stability of satellite in space?
the gravitational force of earth keeps the satellite(better write artificial satellite)in orbit.
What force allows satellites to orbit the earth?
Gravity is the force that allows satellites to orbit the Earth. The gravitational pull between the Earth and the satellite causes the satellite to continuously fall towards the Earth while moving forward at a speed that keeps it in orbit.
What force keeps satellite in orbit around the Earth?
There is only one main force acting on a satellite when it is in orbit, and that is the gravitational force.
What provides the force that causes the centripetal acceleratoin of the satellite in orbit?
The force that provides the centripetal acceleration for a satellite in orbit is the gravitational force between the satellite and the celestial body it is orbiting, such as Earth. This gravitational force acts as the centripetal force that keeps the satellite in its circular path around the celestial body.
How does the centripetal force act on a satellite?
The centripetal force acts towards the center of the circular path followed by the satellite, allowing it to maintain its orbit. In the case of a satellite orbiting Earth, the force of gravity provides the centripetal force required to keep the satellite in its orbit.
What is the force which keeps the satellite in orbit round the earth?
gravity
What is the force that causes the earth to orbit the sun?
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.
What is the force that makes satellites orbit at the same height around the earth?
Gravity keeps satellites in orbit. The closer you are to the Earth, the faster you have to go to maintain your orbit. At low Earth orbit, the altitude of the Space Station, you make an orbit every 90 minutes. At the Moon's distance you need over 27 days to go around the Earth. In-between there is an altitude which matches the rate of the Earth's rotation. Many satellites orbit at this altitude.
A satellite of mass 5500 kg orbits the Earth in a circular orbit of radius of 9.3 106 m this is above the Earth's atmosphereThe mass of the Earth is 6.0 1024 kg?
The gravitational force acting on the satellite is provided by the gravitational force between the satellite and the Earth, and is directed towards the center of the Earth. The gravitational force is responsible for causing the satellite to move in a circular path around the Earth. The centripetal force required to keep the satellite in its circular orbit is provided by the gravitational force between the satellite and the Earth.
Which force keeps a satellite in orbit?
The mutual gravitational attraction between the satellite's mass and the earth's mass. Short answer: The force of gravity.
Does satellite has acceleration due to gravity or not?
yes, this ADG helps the satellite to orbit earth. This is the centripital force
Is torque produce in satellite due to gravity?
A satellite small enough to be treated as a point particle. Can earth's gravity exert a torque on a satellite about the earth's center? Torque causes an object to rotate around a specific point. Torque = force * perpendicular distance and Torque = moment of Inertia * angular acceleration. When a satellite is launched, it is forced up to a specific distance from the earth's center and accelerated to a specific velocity parallel to the surface of the earth. The satellite continues moving in circular orbit. The force which causes the satellite to move in a circular path is the gravitational force caused by the mass of the earth, mass of the satellite, and distance from the center of mass of the earth to the center of mass of the satellite. This force causes the direction of the velocity to rotate so it is always tangent to the circle. This force produces the torque which makes causes the satellite to rotate so the direction of its velocity is always perpendicular to the direction of the gravitational force.
