2)Geostationary orbit is the orbit where any object lies within it will move at the same angular rotation of the earth.
3)Does the geostationary orbit have to be exactly horizontal to the equator?

-geostationary orbits are when objects orbit around Earth at the same angular speed as the Earth's rotation?
-object of the orbit is located above the equator
-its called geostationary because the viewpoint of Earth from the object remains the same throughout orbit?
Are all satellites geostationary?
No.... satellites that orbit faster than 24 hours, are not geostationary? 
What is the distance of geostationary object from surface of Earth?
r > 6.371 x 10^6 m

Cher, how does this thing remains in constant altitude above Earth?
How come it will have same rotational speed as Earth also?]]> 2020-07-29 02:22:01 UTC https://padlet.com/kapilanramarao/4wqeqyrswr61gh89/wish/664633587 j20032602 https://padlet.com/kapilanramarao/4wqeqyrswr61gh89/wish/664633982 Geostationary orbit is an orbit in which satellites orbit around the Earth at the same rate as the Earth rotating on its axis.
Its geostationary as the object will remain stationary relative to the rotation of the Earth?]]> 2020-07-29 02:22:35 UTC https://padlet.com/kapilanramarao/4wqeqyrswr61gh89/wish/664633982 https://padlet.com/kapilanramarao/4wqeqyrswr61gh89/wish/664634077 The earth seems to be at stationary even though it’s circulating around it’s orbital. Why?

It's called geostationary because the earth looks like it is stationary from the satellie?
All satellites are geostationary if they rotate at the same speed as the earth?

-geostationary orbit allows satellite to not be readjusted 
- satellites are geostationary if they are above equator
-3.59 x 10^7 m from surface]]> 2020-07-29 02:23:27 UTC https://padlet.com/kapilanramarao/4wqeqyrswr61gh89/wish/664634657 https://padlet.com/kapilanramarao/4wqeqyrswr61gh89/wish/664634826 Geostationary is where an objects orbit in a circular motion with the same angular speed as the earth which cause the earth to look stationary from the object's perspective.
Question:
-how does the satellite maintain equal angular speed as the earth
-does the gravity that acts on the satellite varies when the satellite is in between the sun and the earth compared to when the earth is in between the satellite and the sun, what about the moon and the other planets?

Ans :
4.22x10^7m from the centre of earth
3.59x10^7m from the surface of the earth

It will also orbit above the equator wherever it is placed. ]]> 2020-07-29 02:25:25 UTC https://padlet.com/kapilanramarao/4wqeqyrswr61gh89/wish/664636138 https://padlet.com/kapilanramarao/4wqeqyrswr61gh89/wish/664636370 An object in this orbit will appear stationary relative to the rotating Earth.]]> 2020-07-29 02:25:36 UTC https://padlet.com/kapilanramarao/4wqeqyrswr61gh89/wish/664636370 kapilanramarao https://padlet.com/kapilanramarao/4wqeqyrswr61gh89/wish/664644664 1) Calculate the distance of geostationary orbit from the surface of Earth]]> 2020-07-29 02:36:49 UTC https://padlet.com/kapilanramarao/4wqeqyrswr61gh89/wish/664644664
