What is the path of an object as it revolves around another object in space?
If the revolving continues for more than a few revolutions, then its path is an elliptical orbit. In space, orbiting cannot take place in a circular path, and the balance point between flying off into space, crashing into the bigger object, or staying in orbit only occurs in an ellipse. It doesn't have to be much of an ellipse, either.
When objects are in orbit what forces hold it there?
In orbit, the force of gravity between the object and the celestial body it is orbiting keeps the object in orbit. This force creates a centripetal acceleration that balances the object's inertia, causing it to stay in a stable orbit.
Is the sun an orbit?
No, the sun is an object. A fairly ordinary star. An orbit is the closed circular path taken by an object around another object. The suns orbit is the path it takes around the galactic centre. A journey of some 250 million years to complete one orbit. In comparison the earths orbit around the sun takes one year.
Orbit in a sentence?
The proper orbit has not yet been attained. The Earth will orbit the Sun about once every 365 days.
What is it called to travel in a closed path around an object?
To orbit the object.
What is constant speed?
Constant speed is movement at a fixed (constant) distance per unit of time. The same amount of distance is covered by the object in the same amount of time at each measurement of that same interval. An example of an object moving at a constant speed might be an object in orbit. Something up their above the drag of the atmosphere will move at a constant speed, and will continuously move around the earth at the same speed. Note that velocity is speed with a direction vector. An object in orbit will have a constant speed, but its velocity will be constantly changing because it is constantly changing the direction it is moving.

The path an object takes around another object is called an?
This is an orbit.

What is the formula for calculating the circular orbit velocity of an object around a central body?
The formula for calculating the circular orbit velocity of an object around a central body is v (GM/r), where v is the velocity, G is the gravitational constant, M is the mass of the central body, and r is the distance between the object and the central body.
What is the path of one object circling another?

What is the formula for the velocity of an object in circular orbit around a central body, where vsqrt(gm/r)?
The formula for the velocity of an object in circular orbit around a central body is v (gm/r), where v is the velocity, g is the gravitational constant, m is the mass of the central body, and r is the distance between the object and the center of the central body.
If the mass of an object does not change a constant net force on the object produces a constant what?
If the mass of an object does not change, a constant net force applied to the object will produce a constant acceleration according to Newton's Second Law (F=ma). This means that the object will continue to accelerate at a constant rate as long as the force is applied.
Why is kinetic energy a constant for a satellite in circular orbit?
On account of the way gravity works, any satellite in any orbit of any shape moves faster when it's nearer the central body, and slower when it's farther from the central body. If it's in a circular orbit, then its speed is constant. But kinetic energy is 1/2MV2 ... 'M' is mass, and 'V' is speed ... so if the speed doesn't change, then the kinetic energy doesn't change.
If the speed of an object does not changed then the object is traveling at a?
If speed does not change then the object is moving with constant speed. when object moves in a circle its speed does not remains constant. Speed of object remains constant only if it moves along linear path.
What is the circular orbit velocity formula and how is it used in physics?
The circular orbit velocity formula is v (GM/r), where v is the velocity, G is the gravitational constant, M is the mass of the central object, and r is the distance from the center. This formula is used in physics to calculate the velocity required for an object to stay in a circular orbit around a central mass, such as a planet or a star. It helps scientists understand the dynamics of celestial bodies and spacecraft in orbit.
When does an object have constant velocity?
An object has a constant velocity when it is not being acted upon by a force (or an unbalanced force) (zero is still a velocity). It is essentially impossible to have a pure constant velocity on earth because of gravity, friction, air resistance, and the rotation of the planet, the orbit of the planet around the sun, and the orbit of the sun around the Milky Way. However, in a single reference plane (the surface of the earth), one may be able to approach it as long as forces are balanced. Even in space, there are forces of gravity and rotational momentum that must be considered.
