Sattelites don't need any fuel to stay in orbit. The applicable law is...."objects in motion tend to stay in motion". Having reached orbital velocity, any such object is essentially "falling" around the earth. Since there is no (or at least very little) friction in the vacuum of space, the object does not slow.... It simply continues.
Sattelites in "low" earth orbit do encounter some friction from the very thin upper atmosphere, and they will eventually "decay".

Answer:
0.011 m.
Explanation:
Energy stored in the spring = Energy of the projectile.
1/2ke² = mgh ................ Equation 1
Where k = spring constant, e = extension or compression, m = mass of the projectile, g = acceleration due to gravity, h = height.
make e the subject of the equation
e = √(2mgh/k)............................. Equation 2
Given: k = 12 N/cm = 1200 N/m, m = 15 g = 0.015 kg, h = 5.0 m
Constant: g = 9.8 m/s²
Substitute into equation 2
e = √(2×0.015×5/1200)
e = √(0.15/1200)
e = √(0.000125)
e = 0.011 m.
Answer:
A) A warm wire
Explanation:
A warm wire has the most resistance. Heating the metal wire causes atoms to vibrate more, which in turn makes it more difficult for the electrons to flow, increasing resistance. Heating the wire increases resistivity.
Answer:
The starting velocity for ball 1 is 1.00 meter/second. Its ending velocity is 0.25 meter/second.
The change in velocity for ball 1 is 0.25 – 1.00 = -0.75 meter/seconds
