What else can I help you with?
What causes a meteor showers at the same time each year?
Earth's orbit crossing the orbit of a defunct comet.
Does a satellite in a polar orbit remain at the same point of a equator?
No, a satellite in a polar orbit does not remain at the same point over the equator. Instead, it travels over the Earth's poles, allowing it to pass over different points on the equator as the Earth rotates beneath it. This means that the satellite covers a different section of the Earth's surface with each orbit, providing global coverage over time.
Is it true seasons are a result of earth's tilted orbit?
No. Earth's orbit is NOT tilted. Earth orbits the Sun in the same plane as the rest of the planets. What IS tilted is Earth's axis of spin (as compared to the plane of its orbit), It is this tilt of this axis that causes the seasons as Earth makes its annual orbit of the Sun.
Does the moon orbit from east to west?
No, the moon orbits the Earth from west to east, which is the same direction as the Earth's rotation. This eastward motion is why the moon rises in the east and sets in the west. The apparent westward movement of the moon across the sky each night is due to the Earth's rotation, not its orbit.
The distance between the earth and the sun remains the same throughout the earth's entire orbit.?
false
What causes a meteor showers at the same time each year?
Earth's orbit crossing the orbit of a defunct comet.
Triple earth's mass effect its orbit?
The earth's mass has no effect on its orbit. An astronaut on a "space walk" hovering over the space shuttle's cargo bay is in the same earth-orbit as the shuttle itself is, although his mass is much less than the shuttle's mass. At the same time, the shuttle and the astronaut are both in the same solar orbit as the earth is, although each of them has quite a bit less mass than the earth has.
Does the Earth spin on its axis in the same or opposite direction as the moons orbit?
The direction of the Earth's spin and the direction of the Moon's orbit is the same - counterclockwise
What is a geosynchronous orbit?
In a geosynchronous orbit, a satellite orbits Earth at the same rate as Earth rotates and thus stays over the same place on Earth all the time.
Why are the days and years on the moon the same as earth?
They are in the same orbit
Does moon travel in orbit?
Yes. The Moon travels in orbit around the Earth, at the same time that the Earth travels in orbit around the Sun, at the same time that the Sun travels in orbit around the Milky Way, etc.
Whats Mercury's orbital period?
It's about 88 Earth Days.
What do weobserve since the moon rotates for each revolution around the earth?
We always see the same features on the surface - since the rotation is the same period as the orbit.
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
Does a satellite in a polar orbit remain at the same point of a equator?
No, a satellite in a polar orbit does not remain at the same point over the equator. Instead, it travels over the Earth's poles, allowing it to pass over different points on the equator as the Earth rotates beneath it. This means that the satellite covers a different section of the Earth's surface with each orbit, providing global coverage over time.
What orbit would allow a satellite to see all parts of the globe?
A geostationary orbit would allow a satellite to see all parts of the globe as it orbits the Earth at the same speed that the Earth rotates. This means the satellite remains fixed above the same point on the equator, providing continuous coverage of that area.
Is the Earth always the same distance from the sun in its orbit?
No.
