ANY closed orbit exists because of the centripetal force of gravity.
Without the force of gravity, the satellite would simply sail away
in a straight line.

The orbit you're describing happens to be a circular orbit, but it
doesn't have to be circular.

When we go up From the earth surface.what happens about the atmospheric pressure​
topjm [15]

Answer:

There are two reasons why air pressure decreases as altitude increases: density and depth of the atmosphere. Most gas molecules in the atmosphere are pulled close to Earth's surface by gravity, so gas particles are denser near the surface.

An object is hanging by a string from the ceiling of an elevator. The elevator is moving upward with a constant speed. What is t
xeze [42]

Answer:

The magnitude of the tension in he string is equal to the magnitude of the weight of the object.

Explanation:

According to the Newton's 1st law, An object will remain at rest or in uniform motion in a straight line unless acted upon by an unbalanced force.

In here, the elevator is moving with a constant speed. So the object must have the equal constant speed. Which means, it has a uniform motion. According to Newton's 1st law, the total unbalanced force on the object must be zero . As we know, there are only two forces are on the object and they are,

The tension in string(T)   ,   The weight of the object(W) .

                                  ∴ F    =   0

                                 T  -  W  =   0

So to balanced those forces, the magnitude of the tension in the string must be equal to the magnitude of the weight of  the object.

dusya [7]

Answer:

D:   The side of Magnet A that's attracted to Magnet B's south pole must be Magnet A's north pole

Explanation:

D:  The side of Magnet A that's attracted to Magnet B's south pole must be Magnet A's north pole because

1) opposite poles attract each other

2) similar poles repel each other

3)magnetic lines of force start at the north pole and end at the south pole
