Why does a satellite in a circular orbit travel at a constant speed? why does a satellite in a circular orbit travel at a constant speed? there is a force acting opposite to the direction of the motion of the satellite. there is no component of force acting along the direction of motion of the satellite. the net force acting on the satellite is zero. the gravitational force acting on the satellite is balanced by the centrifugal force acting on the satellite?

Answer:
Weightlessness
Explanation:
When the elevator is in free fall, this can only occur when the cord of the elevator breaks.
The acceleration of the elevator will be equal to the acceleration due to gravity. That is:
a = g
Then, the body will experience what we called WEIGHTLESSNESS
Where the normal reaction N of the person will tend to zero. That is
N = 0
The value of FN < 0 because the person inside the lift will experience weightlessness.
Answer:
The second ball
Explanation:
Both balls are under the effect of gravity, accelerating with exactly the same value. The first ball is dropped, therefore its initial velocity is zero. Since the second ball has horizontal and vertical velocity components, its initial velocity is given by:
The vertical component is zero, however, it has a horizontal velocity, so its initial speed is not zero, therefore the secong ball has the greater speed at ground level.
