5 A satellite S is moving in an elliptical orbit Q 145 around the earth The mass of the satellite is very small compared to the mass of the earth Then 1 the acceleration of S is always directed towards the centre of the earth 2 the angular momentum of S about the centre of the earth changes in direction but its magnitude remains constant 3 the total mechanical energy of S varies periodically with time 4 the linear momentum of S remains constant in magnitude itut 4 eat a cha 1 2 gefta femfeta vem f gea 1 Ser afea gen 1
