A satellite works by receiving waves of various types of information such as radio, television, and weather When the information is received, the satellite then transmits the information to different locations.
1. Working: A satellite has a main computer which is controlled by it's station situated on earth through radio waves. It receives the signals from the antenna and sends back as a response. Everything is done through radio waves.
2. Location: It is sent to stratosphere where there is a limited amount of gravity pull due to which it neither fly away in space nor gets pulled by earth.
3. Power source: It has huge solar panels on it due to which it receives the heat from sun and produces electricity for it.

In the Philippines, artificial satellites work as transmitters. These transmit cellular phone communications, Internet, weather observation, television channels' signals, and navigation.
What kind of help do satellites give car drivers and airplane pilots?
Navigation. The Global Positioning System (GPS) provides location and time information for anywhere on the Earth via a series of satellites in geostationary orbits. The time it takes for the driver/pilot to send a signal to the satellites and receive it back again can be used to work out how far away you are from the satellites, which is used to work out where you are.
How does a GPS (Global Positioning System) work?
A GPS works by satellites that are located in outer space. These satellites are connected with cameras that show the whole earth. You GPS and the satellites systems are working together to provide maps for you.

What are the applications of modern physics in your daily lives?
GPS and handphones can work because of the satellites, and satellites makes use of special relativity(modern physics) to calculate the time dilation which ensures the satellites sends useful and accurate information.
How do gps satellites work?
Scientists can monitor changes in elevation as well as horizontal movement along faults using a network of Earth-orbiting satellites called GPS.
How many minimum satellites are required for a Gis device to work?
a GPS device will need at least 3 satellite locks to work.
What are ring satellites?
No, because rings are not satellites, but the moons are satellites.
