An orbit, for the most part, does not require any work to maintain. A satellite
orbiting earth is essentially in freefall and is continuously pull toward Earth.
However, it is moving "sideways" so fast that it continously misses. Some fuel is
needed to make occasional adjustments to the orbit, but not to maintain the
orbit overall.
Notice that the moon doesn't need any fuel to stay in orbit round the Earth,
just as the Earth doesn't need any rocket engines or rubber bands to stay
in orbit around the sun.
What else can I help you with?
Is it true that trees can be fuelled in large numbers from a forest regularly?
Yes, forests can supply a sustainable source of biomass for fuel production. It is important to manage forests in a way that promotes healthy growth and diversity to ensure a continuous supply of fuel without harming the ecosystem. Additionally, using trees for fuel should be done in a way that considers carbon emissions and overall impact on the environment.
Which form of fossil fuel has the longest lasting supply left?
Coal is generally considered to have the longest lasting supply of fossil fuel left due to its abundant reserves worldwide. However, the longevity of coal as a fuel source also depends on factors such as consumption rates, technological advancements, and environmental regulations.
Why does your body need a continuous supply for oxygen?
Your body needs a continuous supply of oxygen due to the biochemical process of aerobic cellular respiration. During the last stage, called the electron transport chain, electrons are transferred along a series of chemicals called electron acceptors. As this occurs, energy is given off to produce molecules of ATP, the energy storage molecule of living things. Oxygen is the last electron acceptor, and once it gains the electrons it bonds with hydrogen to form water, removing the oxygen from the electron transport chain. If a new oxygen atom does not take its place immediately, the electron transport chain shuts down, and your cells will not be able to produce enough ATP to fuel their cellular processes, and they will die, and so will you. So you need a constant supply of oxygen in order to keep the electron transport chain working and producing enough energy (stored in ATP) for survival.
Which fuel contains sulphur impurities?
Diesel fuel commonly contains sulphur impurities, which are released as sulfur dioxide when the fuel is burned. Efforts have been made to reduce the sulfur content in diesel fuel to meet environmental regulations and reduce air pollution.
Which fossil fuel could supply energy needs for about two hundred years but is linked to acid rain?
Coal is a fossil fuel that could supply energy needs for about two hundred years but is linked to acid rain. When coal is burned, it releases sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides, which can react with water vapor in the atmosphere to form acids that fall back to Earth as acid rain.
Did the US supply the UK with fuel during the Falklands war?
No. The US helped with intelligence info from satellites and air to air missiles.
What causes diesel car continues to run after ignition turned off?
The most likely cause is the continuous supply of fuel to the cylinders owing to the supply pump, which is electrical, not switching off.
How do satellites get their energy?
Satellites typically use solar panels to convert sunlight into electricity. This electricity is used to power the satellite's systems and keep it running while in space. Some satellites may also have batteries for storing energy to use when not exposed to sunlight.
Is it true that trees can be fuelled in large numbers from a forest regularly?
Yes, forests can supply a sustainable source of biomass for fuel production. It is important to manage forests in a way that promotes healthy growth and diversity to ensure a continuous supply of fuel without harming the ecosystem. Additionally, using trees for fuel should be done in a way that considers carbon emissions and overall impact on the environment.
How does heat fuel and oxygen make a fire?
In a fire, heat causes the fuel to release gases. The oxygen in the air then combines with these gases, creating a chemical reaction called combustion. This reaction produces heat and more gases, which sustain the fire as long as there is a continuous supply of heat, fuel, and oxygen.
There were no satellites 100 years ago What modern technologies are needed do that you can launch and use satellites?
Large rockets, computer control, compact fuel.
What step should be taken first in disassembling the fuel supply contol assembly?
A: Disconnect the wires that supply electricity to the fuel supply solenoid valve
Why do engineers keep the masses of satellites as small as possible?
Engineers keep the masses of satellites as small as possible to reduce the overall cost of sending them into space, as heavier satellites require more fuel and resources for launches. Additionally, smaller satellites are more maneuverable and flexible in their deployment options in space.
What is the life of satellites?
Satellites have a typical operational lifespan of 5 to 15 years, after which their fuel is exhausted or their components degrade. However, some satellites have lasted much longer through efficient management of resources. When a satellite reaches the end of its life, it may be moved to a "graveyard" orbit to reduce the chances of collision with other operational satellites.
In a(n) fuel oil supply system one pipe is the supply and the other acts as the return.?
In a(n) ____________________ fuel oil supply system, one pipe is the supply and the other acts as the return.
What are the symptoms of a bad fuel pump on a Infinity J30?
A bad fuel pump will hinder the fuel supply to the engine. The engine can run rough with an inconsistent supply of fuel, or it will completely shut off.
Why isn't the car starting after replacing the fuel pump?
Your new fuel pump is apparently defective. A fuel pump is required to supply fuel to the engine, and the engine cannot run (and of course not start) without a supply of fuel.
