Which could cause a satellite to descend low enough that it burns up in the earths atmosphere? a. centripetal force b. air resistance c. gravitational force

B. Air resistance

Explanation:

If the distance at which the satellite orbits is not enough to avoid the atmospheric drag, it will be affected by the friction of the Earth's atmosphere and the drag will slow down the speed of the satellite. Therefore, It will result in the reduction in the altitude of a satellite's orbit and eventually burn.

adding a(n) to an electric circuit would increase the magnetic field around a wire;

b. solenoid

a solenoid is a type of electromagnet whose purpose is to generate a controlled magnetic field.

if the purpose of the solenoid is instead to impede changes in the electric current, a solenoid can be more specifically classified as an inductor rather than an electromagnet.
