Essay:
1. ) What do you expect would happen to the gravitational acceleration as you descend into a vertical mine shaft?
2.) Explain how the satellites remain in its orbit?
Pls help me guys.​

Sagot :

Answer:

1.As you go down below the Earth's surface, in a mine shaft for example, the force of gravity lessens. Weight and gravitational pull continue to decrease as you get closer to the centre of the Earth

2.

  • Satellites are able to orbit around the planet because they are locked into speeds that are fast enough to defeat the downward pull of gravity. ... A satellite maintains its orbit by balancing two factors: its velocity (the speed it takes to travel in a straight line) and the gravitational pull that Earth has on it.

  • A Satellite is a Projectile

Once launched into orbit, the only force governing the motion of a satellite is the force of gravity. Newton was the first to theorize that a projectile launched with sufficient speed would actually orbit the earth.
