geosynchronous

    How do we know geosynchronous sattelites are actually moving?

    Im in an argument with someone who believes in geocentrism and i used geosynchronous satellites to disprove geocentrism but he is now asking for how we can know they move.

    What's a geosynchronous satellite?

    What is the definition of a geosynchronous satellite and what is an example of one?

    Importance of Satellites in Geosynchronous Orbit?

    What is the importance of a satellite in a geosynchronous orbit and what does it have to do with communications, TV, military and computers? Please refer me to websites if you can, thanks!

    I have a trivial question about a satellite if it is in Geosynchronous Orbit?

    These orbits have to be circular. Calculate how high above the earth's surface a satellite in a geosynchronous orbit has to be. The only information needed is the mass of the earth (-6.4 x 10^24kg) and the radius of the earth (-6.4 x 10^6m) It is not good enough to give just the answer (35.8m)...

    physics geosynchronous satellite problem and mass problem i cant get?

    hi, help would be nice, thanks 1) Given: G = 6.67259 × 10^-11 Nm2/kg2 . A 1060 kg geosynchronous satellite or- bits a planet similar to Earth at a radius 1.95 × 10^5 km from the planet’s center. Its angular speed at this radius is the same as the rotational speed of the Earth, and so they ap-...
