15. A satellite is in a circular orbit above Earth's surface.
Why is the work done on the satellite by the gravita-
tional force zero? What does the work-kinetic
energy
theorem predict about the satellite's speed?

1) when you rub your hands together quickly, the kinetic energy is converted to mechanical energy.2) thermal energy from the sun travels to earth as infrared waves.3) energy is transferred through the matter of space by electromagnetic waves. 4) when a match is burned, chemical potential energy is converted to thermal and radiant energy. 5) seismicwaves are caused by back and forth movement , or vibration, of an object. 6) mechanicalenergy in an engine changes thermal energy into kinetic energy to make a car move.

One splits the atoms and molecules  the other combines them
