Improving our model of gravitational potential energy
A satellite moves in elliptical orbit around Earth, which is one of the foci of the elliptical orbit. (a) The satellite is moving faster when it is closer to Earth. Explain why. (b) If the satellite moves faster when it is closer to Earth, is the energy of the satellite-Earth system constant? Explain.
