Consider a satellite in a circular orbit above Earth’s surface. In Chapter 4 we will learn that the force of gravity changes only the direction of motion of a satellite in circular motion (and keeps it in a circle), but does not change its speed. Work done on the satellite by the gravitational force is zero. What is your explanation?
