प्रश्न

State with reasons whether the sentence is  true or false .

 A satellite needs a specific velocity to revolve in a specific orbit.

उत्तर

 The specific velocity with which the satellite revolves around a planet is known as critical velocity. It is given as

\[v_c = \sqrt{\frac{GM}{R + h}}\]
So, it can be observed that the critical velocity of a satellite changes depending on the height of the orbit from the surface of a planet. Thus, to revolve in a specific orbit, a satellite would require specific velocity. Hence, the statement is true.
