HW 11.7 (Motion in Space) 1

This document discusses motion in space and orbits. It explains that satellites and planets move in elliptical orbits around other massive objects due to gravitational attraction, and that the closer an object is to the center of mass, the faster its orbital speed. The document also notes that objects in free fall are essentially weightless as they experience acceleration equal to gravitational attraction.
