Satellites need to be self contained for their energy supply. There are a limited number of options. These are
* Battery power * Fuel Cells * Solar Power * Nuclear Power
Space satellites rely on solar energy for power. Solar panels on the satellite convert sunlight into electricity to power the various systems onboard. The use of solar energy allows satellites to operate efficiently in space where other energy sources may not be available.
No, orbiting satellites do not use geothermal energy panels. They typically use solar panels to harness solar energy for power generation. Geothermal energy is derived from the heat of the Earth's core and is not used in space-based applications like satellites.
Natural satellites (moons) dissipate energy that either originates in the body's hot core, or else has been previously absorbed from solar (sun) radiation. Artificial earth satellites typically operate on-board electronics with electric power from solar panels excited by the sun. They also use propellant carried at launch for station-keeping thrusters, and may also carry nuclear reactors when the load will exceed the available solar energy flux.
The five major types of artificial satellites are: research, communications, weather, navigational, and applications. Please see the related links.
Those are called planetary satellites or natural satellites. Each planet has its own set of natural satellites that orbit around it.

The Sun
Nuclear energy provides energy, not a push of motion.
Satellites are launched in east direction to use earths rotational velocity and to reduce launch energy.
they send magnetic energy which can effect the radio waves, television satellites, cellphone satellites, and different things like that on earth.
Stars, satellites, and something else
Most satellites are powered by solar power; from the Sun.
Yes, many calculators use solar energy, but not from satellites. There is a tiny solar panel on the calculator. Cover it up with your finger and you'll see the calculator stop working.
Satellites communicate using electromagnetic waves, which are a type of transverse wave. In a transverse wave, the oscillations of the wave occur perpendicular to the direction of energy transfer. This is in contrast to longitudinal waves, where the oscillations are parallel to the direction of energy transfer. Therefore, satellites utilize transverse waves for communication.
The satellites are usually placed so in an orbit high enough so that they don't lose much movement energy due to atmospheric friction.
