Question

The path of a very small satellite S in an orbit around a massive planet P is shown in the figure. The distance from 3 to 4 is the same as from 4 to 5, 9 to 10, and 10 to 11. S has a minimum speed at '4' True False Greater than Less than Equal to The PE of S is constant. True False Greater than Less than Equal to The angular momentum of S varies with position True False Greater than Less than Equal to The total PE + KE at '2' is at '8'. True False Greater than Less than Equal to The magnitude of the force on S at 'l' is at '5' True False Greater than Less than Equal to For the orbit of S shown, P could be located at X. True False Greater than Less than Equal to The speed at S at position '7' is at '1. True False Greater than Less than Equal to

Explanation / Answer

29) at 4 distance is maximum so potential energy is maximum and kinetic energy is minimum

so speed also minimum

true

30) false

31) angular momentum remains constant

ans: false

32) total energy is alwys constant

so it is true
