Assume theres no air reaistance. (or else the ball will oppose the motion of the ball, hence decrease the velocity increase)
see if there are any problems!
Answer:
a. Velocity
Explanation:
The slope of the tangent line on a position-time graph is the instantaneous velocity.
Answer:
The kinetic energy is 
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The radius of the orbit is 
The gravitational force is 
The kinetic energy of the satellite is mathematically represented as

where v is the speed of the satellite which is mathematically represented as

=> 
substituting this into the equation

Now the gravitational force of the planet is mathematically represented as

Where M is the mass of the planet and m is the mass of the satellite
Now looking at the formula for KE we see that we can represent it as
![KE = \frac{ 1}{2} *[\frac{GMm}{r^2}] * r](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=KE%20%20%3D%20%20%5Cfrac%7B%201%7D%7B2%7D%20%2A%5B%5Cfrac%7BGMm%7D%7Br%5E2%7D%5D%20%2A%20r)
=> 
substituting values


Answer:
The correct answer to the question is
B. It always decreases
Explanation:
To solve the question, we note that the foce of gravity is given by
where
G= Gravitational constant
m₁ = mass of first object
m₂ = mass of second object
r = the distance between both objects
If the mass of one object remains unchanged while the distance to the second object and the second object’s mass are both doubled, we have
= 
Therefore the gravitational force is halved. That is it will always decrease
