Question

Choose all the correct statements about this situation (see the simulation) from the list below. Assume the mass of the satellite is much less than the mass of the planet. Increasing the mass of the satellite increases the orbital period. The kinetic energy of the satellite is conserved throughout the orbit. Increasing the mass of the satellite decreases the orbital period. Running the simulation after pressing the "Kepler's 2nd law" button demonstrates that equal areas of the orbit are swept out in equal time intervals. As the satellite orbits the planet the gravitational force on the satellite is always perpendicular to the satellite's velocity. The linear momentum of the satellite is conserved throughout the orbit. The sum of the gravitational potential energy and the kinetic energy is conserved throughout the orbit. 0 The orbital angular momentum of the satellite is conserved throughout the orbit.

Explanation / Answer

the answers are 2,4,5,7,8

1.running the simulation after pressing the Kepler.s 2nd law button demonstratrates that equal ares of the orbit are swept out in equal time intervals(f)

2. as the satellite orbits the gravitational force on the satellite is always perpendicular to the satellites velocityT(t)

3. the sum of the gravitational potential energy and the kinetic energy is conserved throughout the orbit

4. the orbital angular momentum of the satellite is conserved throughout the orbit(t)
