for the circular motion of a satellite a centripetal force is requid. these force is supplied by the gravitional force between the earth and satellite this is trueall objects in the satellite is zero ie, the object in a satellite feel weightlessness

One major difference between an artificial satellite and a space probe is that the artificial satellite?

One major difference between an artificial satellite and a space probe is that an artificial satellite typically orbits a celestial body, such as Earth, while a space probe is designed to travel through space to explore other celestial bodies.


Can a pendulum vibrate in an artificial satellite?

Yes, a pendulum can vibrate in an artificial satellite since motion in a satellite is relative and independent of gravity. However, because artificial satellites are typically in a state of free fall or orbit around a celestial body, the motion of a pendulum may appear more complex due to the satellite's acceleration and movement.


What is the difference between a natural satellite and a artificial satellite?

A satellite is a body orbiting another like a planet or moon. A natural satelite is not man-made. The moon and other bodies were called this before the artificial, or man-made satellites were ever made like the ISS.


What is different between planet and satellite?

Srictly, a planet orbits a star, while a satellite orbits a non-stellar body. Planet is natural whereas satellite is either natural or artificial. Artificial satellites may have different speed, whereas planets have the same speed always.


Natural and artificial satellite?

A natural satellite is something that is in orbit of another thing that was placed their by natural means; in other words accidentally. An artificial satellite is something that is in orbit of another thing that was placed their intentionally.


What is the difference between the moon and a satellite?

The moon is a natural celestial body that orbits a planet, such as Earth's moon. A satellite, on the other hand, is an artificial object that is launched into space to orbit a planet or celestial body for various purposes, such as communication or observation.


Why can the moon be described as a satellite?

Well,satellite means any object orbiting a larger object,so any body will do including the moon. Any object which orbits a planet is a satellite. The Moon is Earth's only natural satellite. All the other objects which orbit the Earth are artificial satellites.
