What else can I help you with?
The source of the centripetal force that keeps the Earth revolving around the Sun is?
gravity
Does earth's gravity do any work on satellite revolving around it?
NO. The gravity of Earth, in conjunction with the inertia of the satellite, keeps the satellite revolving around Earth. However, the satellite doesn't get any nearer to the Earth. So, according to the laws of physics, no work is done. (I'm ignoring the fact that satellites sometimes lose height and need to be "boosted" a bit to maintain their orbits. Also, I'm assuming that the satellite's orbit is circular. If the orbit is elliptical the answer is more or less the same, but a bit more complicated.)
A satellite in orbit around earth is always falling towards earth?
Yes. They accelerate (change the direction of their movement) towards Earth, and this may be labelled as "falling".Yes.

Why can the moon not escape from the earth?
The earth is six times more massive than the moon. That keeps the moon in orbit around it, just as the mass of the sun keeps the earth in orbit around it.
Help me write a sentence about the force of gravity on the earth?
Gravity keeps trees from floating about.
What is the force which keeps the satellite in orbit round the earth?
gravity
What keeps the satellite in orbit Centripetal or electrical?
Centripetal force is what keeps a satellite in orbit around a celestial body, like Earth. This force is due to the gravitational attraction between the satellite and the celestial body. Electrical forces play a role in satellite communication and operation, but they are not directly responsible for keeping the satellite in orbit.
What force is acting on a satellite?
The main force acting on a satellite is the gravitational force from the planet or celestial body it is orbiting. This force keeps the satellite in orbit and prevents it from flying off into space. Other forces, such as atmospheric drag or solar radiation pressure, can also affect a satellite's motion.
In an atom the electrons travel around the nucleus somewhat like a satellite orbits the earth The force that keeps the electrons in orbit is the?
Repelling Force of Gravity
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.
What causes stability of satellite in space?
the gravitational force of earth keeps the satellite(better write artificial satellite)in orbit.
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.
What is the force that keeps a satellite in motion?
The force that keeps a satellite in motion is the gravitational force of the planet it is orbiting. This force acts as a centripetal force, pulling the satellite towards the planet and keeping it in its orbit.
What fundemental force keeps the earth in the sun?
You mean 'keeps in the orbit of the sun? Gravitational force of attraction keeps the earth going around the sun.
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 orbits around the earth?
No force orbits around the Earth. Forces do not orbit. The force that keeps material objects in orbit around the Earth is the mutual force of gravity between the Earth and the object.
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.
