As the height of the satellite object gets lower the speed of the satellite increases
- The velocity of the satellite revolving at a distance of height ‘r’ from the surface of the earth is given by the formula
- By seeing the formula it is clear that the velocity of the satellite is inversly proportional to square root of distance between the satellite and the earth surface
- If the satellite gets lower, the height of the satellite decreases which results in increase in the speed of the the satellite
