An artificial satellite of Earth nears the end of its life due to air resistance. While still in orbit:

Artificial satellite moving around the earth is just like a

A rescue helocopter , moving with a constant horizontal speed at a certain height above the ground , drops a food packet from it . If air resistance is negligible, the food packet will land (a) below the plane and ahead of it (b) below the plane and behind it or (c) directly below the plane .

An artificial satellite of the earth is launched in circular orbit in the equatorial plane of the earth and the satellite is moving from west to east. With respect to a person on the equator, the satellite is completing one round trip in 24 h . Mass of the earth is M=6xx10^(24)kg. For this situation the orbital radius of the satellite is

A balloon is going upwards with velocity 12 m//sec it releases a packet when it is at a height of 65 m from the ground. How much time the packet will take to reach the ground (g=10 m//sec^(2))

Assertion: A person sitting in an artificial satellite revolving around the earth feels weightless. Reason: There is no gravitational force on the satellite.

The gravitational force due to the earth also acts on the moon because of which it revolves around the earth. Similar situation exists for the artificial satellites orbiting the earth. The moon and the artificial satellites orbit the earth. The earth attracts them towards itself but unlike the falling apple,they do not fall on the earth, why?
