What else can I help you with?
What are satellite multiple repeater units called?
uplinks
How do space people contact with their parents?
Satellite phones and internet uplinks for video calls, they have really good reception.
What is pogee?
Apogee is the point at which a satellite in an elliptical orbit is At its apogee, the satellite travels slower than at any other point in its orbit.
What 7 letter word can you make with the letters with the letters niksupl?
uplinks
From earth one satellite appears to overtake another the faster satellite is?
The faster satellite appears to overtake another satellite when observed from Earth. This is because the faster satellite covers a greater distance in the same amount of time, causing it to catch up to and pass the slower satellite.
Is satellite internet as fast as cable internet?
Yes in most cases is it. Sometimes cable is even slower.
The Hubble Space Telescope is located in LEO. Does the telescope move faster or slower around the Earth compared with a geostationary weather satellite?
That is the exact questin i had!!
What can you infer about the linear velocity of a satellite in an elliptical orbit as it travels from perigee to apogee?
The linear velocity of a satellite in an elliptical orbit increases as it moves from perigee (closest point to Earth) to apogee (farthest point from Earth) because the gravitational pull is weaker at apogee, causing the satellite to speed up. At perigee, the satellite moves faster due to the stronger gravitational pull from Earth.
Why does the speed of a satellite undergo change in an elliptical orbit?
The speed of a satellite changes in an elliptical orbit because the satellite moves faster when it is closer to the central body due to gravitational acceleration, and slower when it is farther away. This change in speed is necessary to balance the varying gravitational force experienced by the satellite at different points in its orbit.
An earth satellite in a elliptical moves with what speed?
The speed is variable; faster while closer to the Earth, and slower further away. But the actual speed varies by the orbital distance.
How much does satellite internet cost on average compared to DSL and cable internet?
Satellite internet is generally more expensive than either Cable or DSL and is much slower. If you live in an area with good cell reception, a cellular modem might be a better compromise.
Why does a satellite travel over different parts of the earth?
Because most satellites are not 'geostationary'. A geostationary satellite orbits the Earth at the same speed that the Earth spins on its axis - such as the GPS grid, or TV relay satellites. Most satellites travel faster or slower than the Earth spins.
