A Satellite movement behaves in two ways. Its orbit may be defined either as "geosynchronous" or "geostationary". Geosynchronous satellites move together with the Earth's own orbit, so it revolves in the same way as the earth is. Geostationary satellites remain statically in place for a certain coordinate...
What else can I help you with?
Do satellites move fast in the sky?
Yes, satellites move quickly across the sky, traveling at speeds of thousands of kilometers per hour in orbit around the Earth. This rapid movement is necessary to maintain their orbits and stay in communication with ground stations.
Why do planets and satellites orbit the sun?
Planets and satellites orbit the sun due to the gravitational pull of the sun. This gravitational force keeps them in their respective orbits as they move through space. The balance between the inertia of the planets/satellites and the gravitational force of the sun results in stable orbits.
What are the 5 types of artificial satellites?
The five major types of artificial satellites are: research, communications, weather, navigational, and applications. Please see the related links.
What do you call satellites that orbit various planets?
Those are called planetary satellites or natural satellites. Each planet has its own set of natural satellites that orbit around it.
How do you spell satalites?
The correct spelling is "satellites."
Do satellites move?
ofcourse, they move.
Why are there many satellites which move in different directions and speeds which will eventually crashwhy can't they move at the same speed and direction?
Satellites are placed into different orbits to serve various purposes like communication, weather monitoring, and scientific research. Each orbit has specific requirements, and therefore satellites need to move at different speeds and directions to fulfill their designated tasks. Collisions can occur due to the vast number of satellites in space and the complexities of orbital mechanics, making it impractical to have all satellites move at the same speed and direction.
What are smaller bodies that move around the planets are called?
They are called satellites
Do satellites move in the same pattern as planets and stars?
Obviously. Since they move in an ellipse around the Earth (or other central body), they change direction all the time. The only way NOT to change direction would be to move in a straight line; satellites don't do that.
How are satellites corrected if they move to far from their original orbits?
send a shuttle to fix it
Do satellites move fast in the sky?
Yes, satellites move quickly across the sky, traveling at speeds of thousands of kilometers per hour in orbit around the Earth. This rapid movement is necessary to maintain their orbits and stay in communication with ground stations.
If satellites move too far from their original orbits how is this correct?
by sending a shuttle and uses a precise dometry to move, and reset it back
How can you tell that a star isn't a satellite?
Stars do twinkle--because of their immense distance, only one photon reaches us at a time, and if it is deflected by air currents, we see it blink. Satellites do not twinkle either, because they are even closer. Their brightness will also vary as the satellite changes its aspect to the sun as it orbits the earth. They do not have red and green blinking lights. Satellites do move, quite quickly. Low orbit satellites orbit the earth every 90 minutes to 2 hours, so they will actually cross the sky in minutes. Geosynchronous satellites are about 150 times farther away (23,000 miles) than low-orbit satellites, and typically are not visible to the naked eye at all. Stars, of course, do not move appreciably. In short, if you look up just for tonight: Stars: twinkle and don't move Satellites: don't twinkle and move like gangbusters.
Which is not likely to appear on a map A poles B legend C longitude lines D satellites E cardinal direction?
Satellites. They move, so they cannot be printed on a map. Additionally, "satellites" is the only option that physically exists; the other choices are concepts, not objects.
Why do planets and satellites orbit the sun?
Planets and satellites orbit the sun due to the gravitational pull of the sun. This gravitational force keeps them in their respective orbits as they move through space. The balance between the inertia of the planets/satellites and the gravitational force of the sun results in stable orbits.
What is the similarity between a natural and artificial satellite?
The difference between an artificial satellite and a natural satellite is on how they are made. Electronic Satellites that are made by man launched into space are Artificical Satellites, while the Moon which is not artificially made are called Natural Satellites.
What are the 5 types of artificial satellites?
The five major types of artificial satellites are: research, communications, weather, navigational, and applications. Please see the related links.
