What is the work done by the force of gravity on a satellite moving round the earth? Justify your answer.
When the satellite moves around the earth, the force of gravity acts on it along the radius of its orbit. The direction of motion is along the tangent to the orbit at any point. Thus, force acts perpendicular to displacement. Therefore, the work done on the satellite is zero.
