Kepler's laws show the effects of gravity on orbits. They apply to any object that orbits another: planets orbiting the Sun, moons orbiting a planet, spacecraft orbiting Earth.
Since energy is conserved (the gravitational force is conservative), we can use the work/energy equation to determine the speed of the satellite as a function of the distance R from O to P. Since the ...
