What else can I help you with?
Does a satellite in low tilt at low altitude show more of the earths surface than one in high tilt at same altitude?
Yes, a satellite in a low tilt at a low altitude will cover more of the Earth's surface due to its proximity and angle of view compared to a satellite in a high tilt at the same altitude. The lower tilt allows for a larger field of view, capturing more of the Earth's surface in a single orbit.
Is the altitude higher or lower if the temperature remains the same?
lower
Why can a satellite orbit above the moon at 5km and not the earth?
At 5km up the Satellite would still be in the earths atmosphere and would also be subject to gravity. Put simply it would just fall back down. Space starts at about 100km up or 62 miles. The moon also has 1/6ths of Earths gravity and at 5km up there would be little if any pull from the moon.
What decreases with altitude?
Air pressure decreases with altitude due to the lower weight of the air column above, leading to lower oxygen levels and potential altitude sickness. Temperature also decreases with altitude as the atmosphere becomes thinner and less able to retain heat.
What condition will true altitude be lower than indicated altitude?
high temperatures
Does a satellite in low tilt at low altitude show more of the earths surface than one in high tilt at same altitude?
Yes, a satellite in a low tilt at a low altitude will cover more of the Earth's surface due to its proximity and angle of view compared to a satellite in a high tilt at the same altitude. The lower tilt allows for a larger field of view, capturing more of the Earth's surface in a single orbit.
Can satellites at different heights have equal velocities?
Yes, satellites at different heights can have equal velocities if they are in circular orbits with the same period. In this case, the satellite at a higher altitude will have a slower velocity than the satellite at a lower altitude, but their velocities will be equal at any given point in their orbits.
Air at lower altitude is what compared to air at higher altitude?
the higher you are the more the density decreases
How does altitude relate to temperature?
The higher the altitude the lower the temperature.
How does altitude relate to climate?
The higher the altitude the colder the climate, the warmer the climate the lower the altitude.
Is the altitude higher or lower if the temperature remains the same?
lower
What does altitude do to the air pressure?
makes 40% oxygen than lower altitude
What is the relation between the altitude compared to sea level and the boiling point of water?
In general, the higher the altitude, the lower the pressure, and the lower the pressure the lower the boiling point.
How does altitude in the atmosphere affect air pressure?
The greater the altitude, the lower the air pressure.

How long does it take to build a satellite?
The time it takes to put together a satellite varies on the size and structure of the satellite. A simple satellite could be put together in a couple of months, where a large science mission could take ten or more years.
What effect does the altitude of the atmosphere have on its density?
Simply put, the higher the altitude, the lower the density of the air molecules.
