Question
1. Objects in orbit around the Earth (like a satellite) still have net forces acting on them. Please choose from one of the following options. a) True b) False 2. When an object is stationary, all of the forces acting on it are balanced. Please choose from one of the following options. a) True b) False 3. A stationary object has no forces acting on it. Please choose from one of the following options. a) True b) False 4. The only way to slow down a moving object is to apply a net force to it.Please choose from one of the following options. a) True b) False 5. Which of Newton's Laws explains why satellites need very little fuel to stay in orbit? Please choose from one of the following options. a) First Law b) Second Law c) Third LawExplanation / Answer
1. False, Since it does not change its orbit,so the centripetal force is balanced by centrifugal force.
2.True, this is a mandatory condition for an object to be at rest.
3. False, only the net force on it should be zero.
4. True, according to Newton's first law to change its motion an external force is required.
5. First law since its in motion in space and there is very less retarding force.
