What is a geostationary satellite?
Geostationary is the moving orbit in the plane of the equator. Geostationary satellites are 22,300 miles above the Earths surface, and remain stationary at a fixed point. Weather and communication satellites are examples of geostationary satellites.
The process of collecting data about earth from far above earths surface?
Remote sensing.
What is portion of the atmosphere 10 to 25 miles above the earths surface is called?
Stratosphere by great usama
What the difference between an earthquake's focus and it epicentre?
The focus is the point in the earths crust where the earthquake originates and the epicentre is the point in the earths surface directly above the focus.
How far apart are the Communications satellites?
Based on 2 degree separation, at this distance above the surface, about 22,300 miles, they are about 920 miles apart
What do we call a measure of height above earths surface?
Height above earths surface is called elevation
What is true about plutons?
they form above earths surface (THIS ANSWER IS NOT CORRECT) They Form BELOW earths surface(:
What is the point on earths surface directly above an earths focus?
The epicenter
What is the distance above earths surface?
Infinity
Where is a satellite when it stays at the same point above earths surface?
A satellite is considered to be in geostationary orbit when it stays in a fixed position above a specific point on Earth's surface. It orbits at the same rate as the Earth's rotation, which allows it to remain stationary relative to the ground below. Geostationary satellites are commonly used for communication and weather monitoring purposes.
Why is it possible for two satellites to circle the earth in orbits with identical period but different heights above the earths surface?
It's possible because the orbital period only depends on the satellite's distance from the center of the Earth, not its height above the Earth's surface. As long as the two satellites have the same distance from the center of the Earth, they will have the same orbital period even if their heights above the Earth's surface are different.
What is a satellite that stays in one location is called?
No satellites stays exactly still as they could not remain in orbit, but probably you are meaning a geostationary satellite. The orbit of these satellites matches the speed of the earth turning underneath them, so they remain above the same geographical point on the earth.
How far does the stratosphere extend the earths surface?
30 feet above sea level and 50 feet above earths surface... science homework these days
What is the altitude of the lowest flying satellite?
the lowest flying satilite is DAN 100kl above the earths surface
Do cirrus clouds form near or far from earths surface?
Cirrus clouds form far above the Earth's surface, typically at altitudes above 20,000 feet. They are thin and wispy in appearance and are composed of ice crystals.
Extends 50-85 km above earths surface?
troposphere
What is earths surface height above sea level called?
Elevation
