What is the name of the orbit of the satellite around the earth?
A Geostationary orbit - it means that the satellite will always stay above the same point on Earth. Hope that helps
An orbit in which a satellite travels at the same speed as the earths rotational speed is called?
That's a 'geosynchronous' orbit. If it also happens to be over the equator, so that the satellite appears to stay at the same point in the sky, then it's a 'geostationary' orbit.
How does a satellite stay in one place?
For a satellite to stay in one place over the earth, the satellite must be going in orbit in the same direction that the earth spins. The satellite must also travel at the same pace/speed as the earth spins to give us the 24-hour day that we as people witness. To apparently stay in one place it must be in a synchronous orbit. For the earth this is about 24,000 miles altitude. It must also be an equatorial satellite.
Why does a satellite stay in orbit?
A satellite stays in orbit due to a balance between its forward speed and the gravitational pull of the Earth. The satellite's speed allows it to constantly fall towards Earth, but its forward motion keeps it moving horizontally enough to avoid collision. This results in a stable orbit around the planet.
What is path satellite takes around earth?
Satellites typically orbit Earth in elliptical or circular paths. The specific path depends on the satellite's purpose and altitude. Low Earth orbit satellites circle the Earth more quickly, while geostationary satellites orbit at the same rate as the Earth's rotation, appearing to stay stationary in the sky.

Is it correct to say that a satellite stay in orbit?
yes
How satellites stay in orbit?
The reason that satellites stay in orbit around Earth is because of two factors. Velocity and the gravitational pull between the satellite and the Earth.
What happens when any object is dropped from a satellite?
When an object is dropped from a satellite in orbit around Earth, it will continue orbiting Earth at the same speed and direction as the satellite. From the perspective of someone on the satellite, the object will appear to float next to them due to being in free fall. However, once the object encounters Earth's atmosphere, it will experience drag and eventually fall towards Earth.

Does the Greywolf stay in the same location or migrate?
They stay in their own location
What causes a satellite to stay in orbit rather than falling towards earth?
Its forward motion. Please understand that something in orbit IS falling towards Earth.

What country was Sputnik 1 set to orbit?
Doesn't work like that, a satellite can't orbit one country. It can stay in geostationary orbit over some, but that's it. Sputnik 1 orbited the whole Earth.
