A satellite can obtain two types of energies:
- Potential energy / Gravitational Potential Energy (G.P.E)
- Kinetic Energy
G.P.E:
It is the amount of work done in bringing a body of mass 'm' to a given point from infinity.
Kinetic Energy and its relation with G.P.E
 |
| T.E and P.E are -ve and are thus below the positive axis |
