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:
k = 1.30
Explanation:
For this exercise let's write the capacitance in air and with dielectric
air C₀ = Q / DV
dielectric C = k Q / DV
They tell us that the capacitor is charged and then the battery is disconnected, therefore the charge stored on the plate remains constant.
therefore the capacitance a changes to the value
C = k C₀
The voltage in the presence of dielectric must meet the relationship
ΔV = ΔV₀ / k
k = ΔV₀ /ΔV
let's calculate
k = 60/46
k = 1.30
Answer:
The correct answer is - 43%.
Explanation: The increase in CO2 between these two suggested periods is approximately 43%. Even though it is a natural process that the CO2 levels vary in the atmosphere, still this is not the same case nowadays. Nowadays, or rather in the past few decades, apart from the natural increase of CO2 in the atmosphere, it has seen a much more increased levels because of the human activity. The industrial facilities and the vehicles, the cutting of the forests and burning the wood (there's both release of CO2 from the burning of the trees and loss of natural accumulator of the CO2), are just some of the more important human activities that contribute to a significant rise in the CO2 levels.
Answer:
Convection currents are the result of differential heating. Lighter (less dense), warm material rises while heavier (more dense) cool material sinks. It is this movement that creates circulation patterns known as convection currents in the atmosphere, in water, and in the mantle of Earth.
