What is the direction of the centripetal force acting on a satellite that is in uniform circular motion around Earth?
The centripetal force acting on a satellite in uniform circular motion around Earth is directed towards the center of Earth. This force is necessary to keep the satellite moving in a circular path instead of following a straight line.
Which of following are not examples of centripetal acceleration?
A car moving around a curve on a road. A rock being swung in a circular path on a string. A rocket moving away from Earth into space. A satellite orbiting around a planet. The rocket moving away from Earth into space is not an example of centripetal acceleration because centripetal acceleration is directed towards the center of the circular path, whereas the rocket moving away from Earth is not following a circular path.
A force that holds a moving object in a circular path is called the?
A force that holds a moving object in a circular path is a "centripetal force". In the case of an orbiting planet, moon, artificial satellite etc., the mutual force of gravitation between the orbiting body and the central body is the centripetal force.
What is tangential motion?
Tangential motion is motion that occurs perpendicular to the radius of a circular path. It represents the speed or direction change of an object moving in a circular path. Tangential motion is often seen in circular motion scenarios, like a car going around a curve or a satellite orbiting around a planet.

Does Archimedes principle holds a good for a satellite moving in a circular orbit?
no

What is an example of Circular acceleration?
a satellite in orbit; it is moving at constant speed but is accelerating outward in circular acceleration, balanced by gravity acceleration (centripetal force).
Which of following are not examples of centripetal acceleration?
A car moving around a curve on a road. A rock being swung in a circular path on a string. A rocket moving away from Earth into space. A satellite orbiting around a planet. The rocket moving away from Earth into space is not an example of centripetal acceleration because centripetal acceleration is directed towards the center of the circular path, whereas the rocket moving away from Earth is not following a circular path.
The space shuttle releases a satellite into a circular orbit 600 km above the Earth How fast must the shuttle be moving relative to Earth when the release occurs?
This depends on the type of shuttle and its orbit. The speed can differ from satellite to satellite, therefore a definite answer can not be given about the exact speed of shuttle while it releases satellite.
A force that holds a moving object in a circular path is called the?
A force that holds a moving object in a circular path is a "centripetal force". In the case of an orbiting planet, moon, artificial satellite etc., the mutual force of gravitation between the orbiting body and the central body is the centripetal force.
Is the satellite accelerating?
Yes, the satellite is accelerating because it is revolving around our earth and in a circular motion so its velocity changes every second so it is accelerating.A2. No, the satellite is not accelerating. Acceleration is defined as the rate of change of velocity. But, its velocity is constant. The centrifugal effect is exactly balanced by the pull of gravity (assuming a circular orbit).But a nice question. The net acceleration between these forces is zero.

What is another word for an artificial object moving around the earth?
Satellite
What did Archimede discover?
Archimedes discovered and invented several things throughout his life:Archimedes' principle (one of several apsects involving buoyancy).The Archimedean screw (a fluid-moving device).The block-and-pulley (using mechanical advantage to move loads with less effort).Inventing the odometer (a device that measures distance travelled by a vehicle).The relation of a circle's area to its radius (given by a mathematical relationship and a basic tool of modern mathematics).
Uniform circular motion deals with objects moving with what speed in a circular path?
When an object is moving in a uniform circular motion while traveling in a circular path, this means it has a constant speed. When an object is moving in a circular path, this indicates it is constantly being pulled towards the center of the circle.
Why does a body becomes weightless in an artificial satellite?
for the circular motion of a satellite a centripetal force is requid. these force is supplied by the gravitional force between the earth and satellite this is trueall objects in the satellite is zero ie, the object in a satellite feel weightlessness
