What is a non Geo stationary satellite?
Non Geo stationary satellite is that satellite which has different angular velocity from earth and not placed on the height of 36000 Km from the earth. If you use Geo stationary satellite than only 3 satellites are enough to cover whole world. most of satellite are geostationary and they are(most of them) active satellites too.
What is a geo synchronus satellite?
A geosynchronous satellite is a satellite in geosynchronous orbit, with an orbital period the same as the Earth's rotation period.
What is full form of GSLV?
geo synchronous satellite launch vehicle
6 What name is given to the orbit of an artificial communications satellite?
Geo
What happens when any object is dropped from a geo stationary satellite?
it revolves in the same orbit
Which task would be best performed by a asatellite in GEO?
A satellite that is in GEO, or geostationary orbit, is one that is at a fixed position above the Earth. A task best performed by this type of satellite is one that involves monitoring one area continuously for changes.
How far must a geostationary communication satellite orbit?
Geo-stationary communication satellites are 35,768 Km far from earth surface at an equatorial latitiude.
Why do people who live near the north pole have trouble receiving signals from geostationary satellites?
A geo-stationary satellite is 35,560 km above the equator. If you're sitting at thenorth pole looking at that satellite, you're looking 8.6 degrees below your horizon.That's a tough direction to receive satellite signals from.
What is a car's Sat Nav used for?
Sat Nav is short for Satellite navigation system. Sat Nav is a system of satellite that provides geo-spatial position with global coverage. When used on a car, sat nav tells where exactly the car is.
What is the definition of the word geo?
Geo is used mostly to mean earth. For example geography combines geo meaning earth and graph meaning picture making (crudely) the study of earth's pictures. Another example the word geosynchronous, geo again meaning earth, syn meaning same, chrono(s) meaning time forming the word that explains satellite's coupled movement with the earth.
Low Earth orbit satellite period of revolution?
umm if my calculations are correct the period of a low earth orbit (LEO) is approximately 40000000000069 years. as extrapolated from Kepler's equation.
What is the Round Trip time of a RF signal for GEO satellites?
the speed of light = 299792458 m / sGEO (Geostationary Earth Orbit) = 35863000 m above the Earth's surfaceround trip time = 2*(35863000)/299792458 =0.239 sthe time needed for an RF signal to reach a GEO satellite and gets retransmitted back to a ground station on earth is approximately 240 milliseconds(assuming zero signal propagation/processing time in the satellite and equatorial ground station location with the same longitude as the satellite slot)
