The satellite is being pulled by the earths gravity all of the time, but the satellite also has an orbital velocity, meaning that is is travelling at high speed. These two opposing forces balance out, the 'sideways' speed of the satellite wants to take it away into space, but the gravity of the earth is always pulling it in. The satellite maintains its speed as there there are no frictional forces to slow it down in space, so it maintains an orbit.
What else can I help you with?
Will plants grow toward sunlight or artificial light?
Plants will naturally grow toward sunlight as this provides them with the energy they need for photosynthesis. While plants can use artificial light for growth, they do not actively grow towards it like they do with sunlight.
Why are large astronomical bodies such as planet and stars around?
all parts of the planet pulled each other toward the center of the mass by gravity
What king of force objects are pulled toward one another in an atom?
In an atom, objects are pulled toward each other by electromagnetic forces between charged particles such as protons and electrons. These forces are responsible for the attraction between the positively charged nucleus and the negatively charged electrons, keeping the atom stable.
What is the causing of the ice caps melting?
Global warming, also known that the sun is melting them. sense we are being pulled toward the sun, the earth is getting warmer.
What phase does replicated strands move toward opposite poles?
During anaphase of mitosis or anaphase II of meiosis, the replicated DNA strands move toward opposite poles of the cell. This happens after the sister chromatids are separated and pulled apart by the spindle fibers.
What things are pulled toward earth?
gravity
What is the carpenters attitude toward completing the artificial leg?
The carpenter had an aversion to working on the artificial leg.
Why are planes pulled toward water?
They aren't. They are pulled towards the center of the earth, as are all objects on the surface of the earth.
Bulge of the ocean is pulled toward the moon by this?
Moon's gravitational force
How fast are you pulled towards the Earth's surface?
pulled means that we are attracted toward the earth which is gravity an that is 9.8 metre per second square
Which term best describes the carpenter's attitude toward completing the artificial leg?
Imperative
Is the least-squares regression line resistant?
No, it is not resistant.It can be pulled toward influential points.
Gas molecules in the atmosphere are pulled toward the earth by?
the force of gravity.
What results when force within the earth are pulled toward each other?
Compression
Do All objects fall toward the center of the earth.?
All objects on earth are pulled towards the center of the earth by gravity. The objects are pulled to the core(center of earth), but are not pulled through because of the normal force.
Why are all objects pulled toward the Earth?
All objects are pulled toward the Earth due to the force of gravity. Gravity is a fundamental force of attraction that exists between objects with mass, and the larger an object's mass, the stronger its gravitational pull. The Earth's mass is large enough to exert a gravitational force on all nearby objects, causing them to be pulled towards its center.
When storing canned goods in cupboards which cans should be pulled toward the front?
The cans that have been in the cupboard the longest.
