The time period of the communications satellites must be 24 hours to make one complete orbit around the earth.

An object that has been placed into orbit in space on purpose is known as a satellite or artificial satellite. Most spacecraft, with the exception of passive satellites, contain a means of generating electricity for the electronics they carry, such as solar cells or radioisotope thermoelectric generators.

A communications satellite is a man-made spacecraft that uses a transponder to relay and amplify radio telecommunication signals. It establishes a channel of communication between a source transmitter and a receiver situated at various points on Earth.

Most satellites that orbit the Earth do so between 160 and 2,000 kilometers above the surface. Because of how closely the satellites are orbiting the Earth, this orbital regime is known as low Earth orbit or LEO. The normal orbital period for satellites in low Earth orbit (LEO) is between 90 and 2 hours.

andreyandreev [35.5K]
Both the effects (l<span>engthening of the transmitted signal's wavelength and decrease in its frequency) indicates that the object is moving away from the observer, and this phenomenon is called Doppler effect.

In fact, when the object is moving away from the observer, the relative distance between two consecutive crests of the wave emitted by the object increases to the observer eyes, since he's moving away. This means that the wavelength appears larger, and since the frequency is inversely proportional to the wavelength, the frequency appears smaller.</span>

What is hard but flexible structure is found in the nose and ears
avanturin [10]
<span>Cartilage is the hard but flexible structure found in pieces of your nose and ears. It is similar to bone, but allows for flexibility and movement. When looking at skeletons, you'll notice that they don't have a nose or ears, because cartilage deteriorates much faster than bone. Cartilage is also found in elsewhere in the animal kingdom--the skeletal structure of a shark is made primarily from cartilage!</span>
