There are many satellites that orbit the earth in a day or less. All of them are man made. The only real satellite that orbits the earth is the moon. That takes 28 days to complete a single orbit.
Both of those words refer to points in the orbit of an earth satellite ... the moon or any artificial satellite. Apogee . . . the point in the orbit where the satellite is farthest from the earth. Perigee . . . the point in the orbit where the satellite is closest to the earth.
As a noun: The rocket placed the satellite into a high Earth orbit. As a verb: The satellite had to travel very fast to orbit the Earth.
A Geostationary orbit - it means that the satellite will always stay above the same point on Earth. Hope that helps
If the satellite is anywhere near Earth's surface, it will take about one and a half hours to orbit Earth once. As the orbit gets higher, it will take longer - both because it must travel a longer distance, and because it will be slower.
Geosynchronous orbit.
it's hot. ;)

The only natural satellite that orbits the Earth is the Moon.
The plane of a satellite's orbit must include the center of the earth.
no, the moon is the Earths natural satellite, the moon is in orbit around the Earth. The whole Earth/Moon system is then in orbit around the sun.
Earth an pluto
YES As height increases, speed of satellite decreases.

GPS satellites orbit at 11,000 nautical miles above the Earth
There is only one main force acting on a satellite when it is in orbit, and that is the gravitational force.
