Choose the incorrect statement from the following:The speed of satellite in a given circular orbit remains constantFor a planet revolving around the sun in an elliptical orbit, the total energy of the planet remains constantThe linear speed of a planet revolving around the sun remains constantWhen a body falls towards earth, the displacement of earth towards the body is negligible

A satellite is in a circular orbit around the Earth. When it is moved to an orbit that is doser to the Earth's surface, which of the following describes the energy changes that take place? A gravitational potential energy increases, kinetic energy increases B gravitational potential energy increases, kinetic energy decreases C oravitational potential energy decreases, kinetic energy increases. D gravitational potential energy decreases, kinetic energy decreases

For two identical satellites in circular motions around the Earth which statement is true?Multiple ChoiceThe one in the lower orbit has less total energy.CorrectThe one in the higher orbit has more kinetic energy.The one in the lower orbit has more total energy.Both have the same total energy.

Every planet revolves around the sun in an elliptical orbit :A. The force acting on a planet is inversely proportional to square of distance from sun.B. Force acting on planet is inversely proportional to product of the masses of the planet and the sun.C. The centripetal force acting on the planet is directed away from the sun.D. The square of time period of revolution of planet around sun is directly proportional to cube of semi-major axis of elliptical orbit.Choose the correct answer from the options given below :A and D onlyC and D onlyB and C onlyA and C only
