Reference no: EM13550312

Communication satellites are placed in a geosynchronous orbit i.e in a circular orbit such that they complete one full revolution about the earth in one sideral day (23.934h), and thus appear stationary with respect to the ground.

(a) the altitude of these satellites above the surface of the earth.

(b) the velocity with which they describe their orbit in SI & English unit.
