They function for anywhere from a few months to 20 years and stay in orbit for sometimes hundreds of years (predicted, obviously no one knows yet)
If you taking care of the GPS, It will last about 5 years
Some satellites last longer then others. The age can be determined by the efficiency of the machinery that it works with. Example: One of the satellite's solar panels have been damaged by debris. That satellite will not last as long as one that has its solar panels at full efficiency.
It lasts for a period of few months to a period of 20 years.

Uranus had 27 known moons last time I checked. There are no artificial satellites.
Who high the satellites
Yes, for this is the only way a sattalite can aquire a sustainable amount of electricity in space. If it used a battery, it wouldn't last very long.
hey :L
Since satellites are in space, and no one has ownership of space, as long as a satellite's orbital takes it over Germany, anyone can have satellites over them.
There are nine types of artificial satellites. Here is the list: Astronomical satellites, Biosatellites satellites, Communication satellites, Miniaturized Satellites, Navigational satellites, Reconnaissance satellites, Earth observation satellites, Space stations, and Weather satellites.
more than 50 years
No, they do not.
