A Satellite movement behaves in two ways. Its orbit may be defined either as "geosynchronous" or "geostationary". Geosynchronous satellites move together with the Earth's own orbit, so it revolves in the same way as the earth is. Geostationary satellites remain statically in place for a certain coordinate...
Some are (geosynchronous are not).
The main type of satellites are: 1) Geostationary 2) Polar
the communication satellites take 24 hours to complete their one revolution around the earthso the orbit of revolving satellite is called geostationary orbit.
No. That only applies to low Earth orbit. Geostationary satellites orbit beyond it.

Geostationary is the moving orbit in the plane of the equator. Geostationary satellites are 22,300 miles above the Earths surface, and remain stationary at a fixed point. Weather and communication satellites are examples of geostationary satellites.
A geosynchronous orbits refers to the orbit of a satellite that matches the rotation of the earth, allowing it to remain above the same line of longitude. The satellite may still move north and south but not east or west. A geostationary orbit is a specific type of geosynchronous orbit directly above the equator. This allows the satellite to remain completely stationary over a fixed point on the earth's surface.
Some are (geosynchronous are not).
Yes, generally they are.
There are two types of satellites that are located in a foxed spot over earth the first is reconnaissance satellites for observation of earth and usually used by the military.. The second is earth observation satellites and are intended for environmental monitoring
Yes, the satellites orbit in a geosynchronous orbit, as with most all communications satellites. (Some exceptions are satellites such as the global positioning satellites.)
It is used for communication plates where geostationary satellites can't reach, in polar areas. Russia uses elliptical satellites where the geostationary satellites can't reach.

In theory, 2 satellites in diametrically opposite geosynchronous orbits could cover the planet. In order for the satellites to communicate, a minimum of 3 would be needed, each at a 60 degree angle to the others. At this point, the strength and quality of coverage increases proportionally to the number of satellites.
Geostationary satellites are the ones used for GPS satellites.
