1.	A satellite s is moving in an elliptical orbit ,paround the earth. The mass of the satellite is very small compared to the mass of the earth, Then,
Answer» The acceleration of s is always directedtowards the centre of EARTH. The angular momentum of s about the centreof the earth CHANGES in direction, but ITSMAGNITUDE remains constant. The TOTAL mechanical energy of s variesperiodically with time. The magnitude of s remains constant Answer :A
