Dec 11, 2022 at 2:59 | comment | added | Kallipso | Thanks for the answer, I think you're right about the conservation of angular momentum, and that's why I conducted more experiments, but with the conservation of angular momentum. I attached a new picture where the red line shows all the positions in which the angular momentum is preserved. I moved the satellite along this line, but I didn't find a circular orbit anywhere. What am I doing wrong? | |
