Which layer do most satellite orbit earth?
Most satellites orbit Earth in the low Earth orbit (LEO) which is between 160 to 2,000 kilometers (100 to 1,240 miles) above the Earth's surface.
Is the earth getting lighter with extracting oil minerals ect?
A very small amount of the atmosphere is being carried away into space as the Earth revolves around the sun. Solar winds can cause this and the Earth is getting lighter, but it is not noticeable. Also, satellites and rockets that are launched into space lower the Earth's mass. Most of the satellites orbiting the Earth will eventually fall back into the atmosphere, but probes, mars rovers, and the moon landing sites will never return to Earth. Extracted oil minerals are used as a fossil fuel and a gas is released as a byproduct so I suppose that gas ads to the small amount of atmosphere leaking into space. Again, this is so very gradual that it is unnoticeable.
What country has the most land dencity or The most solid earth?
Greenland has the lowest population density out of any country due to its large land area and small population. It is an autonomous territory within the Kingdom of Denmark and has a mostly solid earth composition, with the majority of its landmass covered in ice.
What are the importance of each layer in the atmosphere?
The troposphere is where weather occurs and contains most of Earth's atmosphere. The stratosphere contains the ozone layer, which protects us from harmful UV rays. The mesosphere helps burn up meteors before they reach Earth's surface. The thermosphere is where auroras and satellites are found.
Which temperature measuring method most accurately measures global warming?
Orbiting weather satellites :Since about 1979, each day satellites measure the temperature over about 80% of the globe to an accuracy of about 0.1 degree C. Weather balloons only make measurements at specific locations that are concentrated mostly over land, The real signature of greenhouse warming is not surface temperature but temperature in the middle of the troposphere, about 5 kilometers up.
Which country has the most satelites orbiting Earth?
Philippines.. this country do have spy satellite, though the country is poor, it manages to buy one...
What are the practical applications for circular motion?
a washing machine, electrons orbiting in an atom, and the most important is satellites revolving around earth.
What happened to sputnik after orbiting earth?
Sputnik was a family name for a series of satellites, most of which burned up during reentry after some time in orbit.
What is the most famouse earth-orbiting satellite?
I would have to say the Moon, but there are many famous satellites that orbit Earth (Hubble, the International Space Station, Chandra X-ray Observatory, etc.)
What are examples of satellites?
Most moons orbiting the various planets of our solar system are considered "satellites" - more specifically, "natural satellites". In addition, the more general use applies to the various space modules, etc., orbiting around the earth or around other planets of the solar system. As they are the result of human device, they are considered, "artificial Satellites". Sputnik 1, as the very first of these, acts as prime example.
What is the most common way trig is used in everyday life?
Global Positioning Systems (GPS) use trigonometry. There are a number of satellites orbiting the earth. The GPS uses the time signals sent by these satellites to establish the distance to the satellites. Trigonometry is then used to find the location of the GPS unit.
Which planet has most satellites?
earth
Which layer of the atmosphere do communications satellites orbit?
Most communications satellites operate outside of the earth's atmosphere. The GPS satellites are about 23,000 miles from the surface of the earth.
Why does a satellite travel over different parts of the earth?
Because most satellites are not 'geostationary'. A geostationary satellite orbits the Earth at the same speed that the Earth spins on its axis - such as the GPS grid, or TV relay satellites. Most satellites travel faster or slower than the Earth spins.
Space orbiting telescopes are found where?

What planet has with the most neutral satellites?
You probably mean to ask about natural satellites as opposed to artificial satellites. In terms of neutrality, all satellites are neutral. In any event, the planet Jupiter has the most natural satellites, of any planet in our solar system. The planet Earth has the most artificial satellites.
What planets has the most number of satellite?
The total number of known moons(NATURAL satellites) of "JUPITER" now stands at 63, currently the most of any planet in the solar system. Many additional tiny moons may exist that have not yet been discovered. Also, currently there are approximately 2465 ARTIFICIAL satellites orbiting the "EARTH".
