Answer will be True False Geater Than Less Than or Equal To

Answer will be : True, False, Geater Than, Less Than, or Equal To

The path of a very small satellite S in an elliptical orbit around a massive spherical 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. The angular momentum of S is constant The magnitude of the force on S at \'5\' is... at \'1\' S has a minimum speed at \'4\' The PE of S is constant. The total PE + KE at \'2\' is.... at \'6\'. For the orbit of S shown, P could be located at X. The speed at S at position \'1\' is... at \'7\'.

Solution

The magnitude of the force on S at `5\' is .... at `1\'.

Greater than

S has a minimum speed at 4

true

The PE of S is constant

False [ as the satellite\'s distance from the planet varies,its speed varies]

The total PE + KE at 2 is ... at 6

Equal [ total mechanical energy is always the same]

For the orbit of S shown P could be located at x

True

The speed at S at position 1 is ... at 7

equal [ speeds are the same]
