Weight W = mg = 10 * 12 = 120 N.

Weight W = m * g = 10 kg * 9.8 m/s² = 98 N

The work done is equal to the change in gravitational potential energy, which depends on the initial and final positions.

The work done in moving an object in a uniform gravitational field depends only on the height difference between points A and B.

The work done in moving an object in a gravitational field depends only on the initial and final positions, not the path taken.

A geosynchronous satellite typically has a circular orbit to maintain a constant position relative to the Earth's surface.

Gravitational field lines never intersect because it would imply two different gravitational forces acting on the same point.

Gravitational potential energy is a scalar quantity and can be negative when the object is within the gravitational field of another mass.

The gravitational field strength (g) at a distance r from a mass M is given by g = GM/r².

The gravitational force is proportional to the product of the masses of the two objects.

The gravitational force is always attractive and acts over long distances, though it is weaker than the electromagnetic force.

The gravitational field is the negative gradient of gravitational potential.

The gravitational force depends on the masses of the objects and the distance between them, but not on the speed of the satellite.

The gravitational force depends on the masses and the distance, but not on the speed of the satellite.

The gravitational force on a satellite depends on its mass, the mass of the Earth, and the distance from the center of the Earth, but not on the speed of the satellite.

The mass of the satellite does not affect the orbital period; it is determined by the height of the orbit and the mass of the Earth.

The mass of the satellite does not affect its orbital speed; it is determined by the mass of the Earth and the radius of the orbit.

A polar orbiting satellite passes over the poles, allowing it to cover the entire surface of the Earth over time.

Newton's law of gravitation leads to the conclusion that the orbits of planets are elliptical, as described by Kepler's laws.

The law of universal gravitation leads to the conclusion that the orbits of planets are elliptical, as described by Kepler's laws.

A satellite in a stable orbit does experience a net force (gravitational force), but it is in free fall, moving with constant speed along a curved path.

Escape velocity is independent of the mass of the object, but it depends on the mass and radius of the Earth.

A satellite in a low Earth orbit has a shorter orbital period compared to a geostationary satellite due to its closer proximity to Earth.

The period of a satellite in a low Earth orbit is shorter than that of a satellite in a high Earth orbit due to the stronger gravitational pull.

A satellite in a low Earth orbit has a very high orbital speed due to the proximity to the Earth and the gravitational pull.

A polar orbit allows a satellite to pass over the entire surface of the Earth as the Earth rotates beneath it.

Weather satellites typically use polar orbits to cover the entire surface of the Earth as the planet rotates beneath them.

Geostationary satellites have an orbital period equal to the Earth's rotation period, which is 24 hours.

Gravitational potential energy decreases as two masses move closer together, as U = -G * (m1 * m2) / r.

Gravitational potential energy can be negative depending on the reference point chosen.
