At 5km up the Satellite would still be in the earths atmosphere and would also be subject to gravity. Put simply it would just fall back down. Space starts at about 100km up or 62 miles. The moon also has 1/6ths of Earths gravity and at 5km up there would be little if any pull from the moon.
A moon is a natural satellite, as opposed to an artificial satellite, which is a man-made object in orbit.
Because it is a satellite - it stays in orbit around Earth. And it is natural - meaning not made by humans.
Yes. The whole idea of being a satellite is that the object orbits another object. If you mean 'can a satellite orbit more than one object', then the answer is also yes. Objects orbiting binary stars would be an example of this.
The best classification for a natural satellite is based on the object it orbits. For example, Earth's moon is classified as a natural satellite because it orbits Earth. Natural satellites can also be classified based on their size or composition.
The moon. It is the earth's only natural satellite.The Earth's largest satellite is the moon, also known as luna.
no, the moon is the Earths natural satellite, the moon is in orbit around the Earth. The whole Earth/Moon system is then in orbit around the sun.
The only natural satellite that orbits the Earth is the Moon.
A satellite is any object that is in orbit around another object. The moon is a natural satellite of the Earth because it orbits around the Earth.
orbit.

The Moon is a natural satellite of Earth. It orbits the Earth, just as other moons orbit planets. It is not classified as a planet because it does not directly orbit the Sun.
satellites are things that orbit other things in space, for example the moon orbits the earth and is therefore the earth's satellite
Our moon takes a month to orbit the Earth.
A satellite, or the moon.
Satellites are in a lower orbit.
they both orbit the earth
An object in an orbit is called a satellite. A satellite can be natural, like Earth or the moon. Many planets have moons that orbit them.
