gravity strength increase

3
New cards

what happens to the gravity strength when the distance increase

gravity strength decreases

4
New cards

what orbits in an elliptical shape

comets

5
New cards

which one has an orbital periods, comets or earth

comets have a more orbital period

6
New cards

in a comet where does it travel the fastest and where does it travel the slowest

the comet travels the fastest when it is nearer to the sun because the gravity increase.

7
New cards

what artificial satellite has the orbital period of exactly one day

geostationary satellites

8
New cards

what are geostationary satellites used for

communication.

9
New cards

how would you calculate orbital speed

orbital speed = 2 x pie x orbital radius / time period.
