Satellites orbit celestial bodies because the force of gravity (always attractive) is balanced with the satellites forward momentum. Think of it as constantly falling over the edge of the Earth. In other words, if you could hit a Golf ball far and fast enough, it would fall over the edge of Earth and keep going. If you remove gravity, it would shoot off into space in a straight line. If you remove forward momentum, it will fall to the ground. (see link) == ==
Satellite TV is delivered by the means of communication satellite and received by a satellite dish and set-top box connected to the television set. In many areas of the world it provides a wide range of channels and services, often to areas that are not serviced by terrestrial or cable providers.
There are no known satellites of Mercury.
GPS signals are processed in the GPS unit and displayed, and they are also processed via three Global Position Satellites. All four units work together and process GPS signals (some to the satellites from the GPS, and some from the satellites to the GPS) to create an accurate position.
Triangulation of satellites requires three satellites that bank of one another simultaneously.
Yes but they are called natural satellites
CORRECT ANSWER:No.
they work by the people on earth they use a control button to keep the satellites working
In the Philippines, artificial satellites work as transmitters. These transmit cellular phone communications, Internet, weather observation, television channels' signals, and navigation.
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.
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.
put dynamite in space XD
this is a good question.scientists and astronomers should work on this.
there are satellite transmitters in space that send singnals to earth
They are all posh
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.
Scientists can monitor changes in elevation as well as horizontal movement along faults using a network of Earth-orbiting satellites called GPS.
a GPS device will need at least 3 satellite locks to work.
No, because rings are not satellites, but the moons are satellites.
