The Moon is Earth's natural satellite.
The moon is called a satellite of earth because it revolves around the earth
If by satellite you mean an object that orbits the earth, then the Moon is a satellite of the earth. There are thousands of other satellites put into orbit by both private and public organizations used for everything from GPS to communication and even you TV service.
A moon is a natural satellite, as opposed to an artificial satellite, which is a man-made object in orbit.
the time it takes the satellite to travel around the earth once
A Geostationary orbit - it means that the satellite will always stay above the same point on Earth. Hope that helps
WikiAnswers cannot support diagrams - sorry. A satellite around the Earth will have an elliptical or (in some cases) a circular orbit. The satellite is constantly accelerating towards the Earth due to the gravity between the Earth and the satellite. However, because of the satellite's tangential velocity, it stays at a relatively constant distance from the Earth.
a weather satellite and it rotates around the Earth at the same rate and in the same direction that Earth revolves so it is always fixed over the same location.
A satellite is any object that is in orbit around another object. The moon is a natural satellite of the Earth because it orbits around the Earth.

Yes. The Earth rotates around the Sun, and therefore it is a satellite of the Sun. Anything that rotates around something else can be cositered a satellite.
Satellite
We have assigned names of things obviously. Planet is the name for those which goes around the sun. And satellite is the one which goes around the planet. So earth is a planet and not considered as satellite. Moon is the natural satellite to our earth.
I saw a satellite orbiting around earth.
