When a satellite in an elliptical orbit approaches closer to the planet it is orbiting its kinetic energy is decrease or increases?

A satellite in a low earth orbit moving faster than a satellite in a geosynchronous orbit?
YES As height increases, speed of satellite decreases.
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.
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.
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.
What best describes the impact of satellite technology?
Satellite technology increases the speed of global communications A satellite technology increases the speed of global communications
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.
Where is the primary body in the elliptical orbit of the maverick weather satellite?
The primary body, earth, is at the foci point closest to the pedigree. At the pedigree the radius is shorter than it is at the apogee.
A satellite in an elliptical orbit travels at constant what?
If the path is perfectly circular, yes, the speed is constant. This should not be confused with the velocity, because while speed is constant, its direction is not; therefore velocity is always changing.
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.
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.
Gravity affects the speed of a satellite in an elliptical orbit?
Yes. Gravity affects EVERYTHING.
