A object orbit another another is a what?
a object orbit another object is called a what?
What is an example of Kepler's first law?
Johannes Kepler's first law states that "The orbit of every planet is an ellipse with the Sun at one of the foci". An example of this is when a space satellite travels around the Earth in an elliptical orbit.
Does Archimedes principle holds a good for a satellite moving in a circular orbit?
no
In science what does the word satellite means?
A satellite is any mass that orbits a larger mass. A satellite may be a planet, moon, asteroid, or comet. The word 'satellite' is also used to refer to any man-made object launched to orbit Earth or another planetary body. Artificial satellites may be spacecraft or orbiting telescopes.
What is meant by a geostationary orbit?
A geosynchronous orbits refers to the orbit of a satellite that matches the rotation of the earth, allowing it to remain above the same line of longitude. The satellite may still move north and south but not east or west. A geostationary orbit is a specific type of geosynchronous orbit directly above the equator. This allows the satellite to remain completely stationary over a fixed point on the earth's surface.
What is pogee?
Apogee is the point at which a satellite in an elliptical orbit is At its apogee, the satellite travels slower than at any other point in its orbit.
The path of a satellite orbiting the earth is best described as linear hyperbolic parabolic or elliptical?
Elliptical. The satellite follows a curved path around the Earth known as an elliptical orbit, where it travels at varying distances from the planet.
The curved path that a satellite follows is a?
The curved path that a satellite follows is called an orbit. This orbit is typically elliptical in shape and allows the satellite to remain in constant motion around the celestial body it is orbiting, such as the Earth.
What is an elliptical satellite?
An elliptical satellite is a type of satellite that orbits Earth in an elliptical path, meaning its distance from Earth varies throughout its orbit. This results in the satellite moving closer to and farther from Earth as it completes its orbit. Elliptical satellites are commonly used for applications like communication and remote sensing.
What is a satellite orbit?
A satellite's orbit is just the path it follows around the Earth or some other planet.Satellites' orbits can be elliptical or circular.
What path earth travels on?
An elliptical orbit round the Sun.
What can you infer about the linear velocity of a satellite in an elliptical orbit as it travels from perigee to apogee?
The linear velocity of a satellite in an elliptical orbit increases as it moves from perigee (closest point to Earth) to apogee (farthest point from Earth) because the gravitational pull is weaker at apogee, causing the satellite to speed up. At perigee, the satellite moves faster due to the stronger gravitational pull from Earth.
A satellite in an elliptical orbit gains speed when it?
A satellite in an elliptical orbit gains speed when it moves closer to the body it is orbiting due to the conservation of angular momentum. This increase in speed occurs as the gravitational force from the body pulls the satellite inwards, causing it to accelerate.
A satellite in an elliptical orbit loses speed when it?
A satellite in a closed orbit has the greatest speed when it's closest to the planet, and the lowest speed when it's farthest from the planet.
What is a object that travels in an orbit around earth?
A satellite, or the moon.
A satelllite in an elliptical orbit travel at constant?
The angular momentum will be conserved.
Gravity affects the speed of a satellite in an elliptical orbit?
Yes. Gravity affects EVERYTHING.
