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 objects stay in orbit?
Items, be they planets, moons or satellites, stay in orbit because they care carefully balanced between their inertia and the gravity of the primary object. They are freely falling - AROUND the primary.A satellite in low Earth orbit goes about 18,000 miles per hour in a direction tangent, or sideways, to the Earth's surface. Without gravity, it would fly off into space. It is continually falling toward the Earth. But because the satellite is moving sideways, by the time the satellite would have fallen to the ground, the satellite has already missed; it is along in its orbit, still falling, still traveling sideways to the Earth.
The path of a satellite around earth is called its?
orbit
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.
Is Orbit Send With Satellite?
The orbit helps the satellite go into orbit.

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.

How does the mass of a satellite affect its orbit?
The mass of a satellite does not affect its orbit. The orbit of a satellite is determined by its speed and the gravitational pull of the object it is orbiting around, such as a planet. The mass of the satellite itself does not play a significant role in determining its orbit.
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.
The circumference of the orbit of a satellite is 260400km the satellite is travelling at 10850km how long does the satellite take to complete one orbit?
24 hours
What is repitivity and revisit of satellite orbit?
The repetitivity and revisit of satellite orbit refers to the time elapsed between observations of the same point on earth by a satellite. It usually depends with the target location, the orbit of the satellite and the swath of the sensor.
